First Ski Weekend in Cran Montana!
Our first Ski Weekend in Cran Montana was amazing! As per CDL tradition, we had a choice of activities – skiing, snowboarding, excursion, skating, trampoline, snow tubing, free time in Cran Montana and study hall (with a great view).
Building Positive Relationships
This month our girls are learning about positive relationships.
On our third pillar we introduced Building Positive Relationships.
Building positive relationships with people is so important for our own sense of wellbeing.
During this pillar we will cover topics such as “What makes a good friend?”, toxic relationships, boundaries and positive relationships.
If you are interested in knowing more about this topic, please find a video attached to this post.
Fun at the weekend!
This gallery contains 10 photos.
We nearly saved the world against hacker attacks in the escape room, had a lot of fun in the snow going down the hill with snow doughnuts and learned new tactics in chess!
New girls in our house
We are really happy to welcome three new members to our VDL family – Fernanda, Ana Lucia and Valentina!
Looking forward to getting to know you better and hope you will enjoy your time at CDL!

Want a quick chocolate fix? Follow the recipe below to make a chocolate mug cake! Yum!
STEP 1
Add 4 tbsp self-raising flour, 4 tbsp caster sugar and 2 tbsp cocoa powder to the largest mug you have (to stop it overflowing in the microwave) and mix.
STEP 2
Add 1 medium egg and mix in as much as you can, but don’t worry if there’s still dry mix left.
STEP 3
Add the 3 tbsp milk, 3 tbsp vegetable or sunflower oil and a few drops of vanilla essence and mix until smooth, before adding 2 tbsp chocolate chips, nuts, or raisins, if using, and mix again.
STEP 4
Centre your mug in the middle of the microwave oven and cook on High for 1½ -2 mins, or until it has stopped rising and is firm to the touch.
Music room improved!
Wellbeing pillar 3 – Positive Friendships
This time we are bringing to light a topic about positive friendships.
These are just some of the questions we are thinking about during this wellbeing pillar:
What is a Toxic Friendship? How can you spot it? What can you do to change this behaviour? How to recognise toxic friendship?
Boundaries. What are they, how are they used in a friendship? Is it positive to have boundaries in a friendship and why?
Oeufs à la neige au caramel aka snow eggs from Elina! Yum!
