Dear all,
Yesterday evening was quite busy ! We had the first boarding assembly for this new school year. After that, we headed to the Léman cafeteria and had a delicious typical Swiss dinner (fondue cheese, Röstis, potatoes, meringues…) The cafeteria was especially decorated with Swiss flags and balloons.

Hello everyone !
Yesterday evening after dinner, we played some ice breaker games to get to know each other. We learned everyone’s name, asked who was from where, discovered things we all had in common, and we laughed a lot 🙂
Roberta and Diana, two other members of staff, were here to share this great moment with us.

We all had breakfast together in the Léman building before our students headed to school. Tonight, we have an assembly for boarders and a dinner.

Good morning everyone !
We had fun yesterday evening ! New students participated in ice breaker games in the Concha Blanca house. Then we shared a barbecue dinner all together, new students, returning students, and boarding staff.
It was so nice playing all together and getting to know everyone.

Hello everyone !
Yesterday was the Welcome back assembly & cocktail. The welcome back assembly was also broadcasted online for the ones who couldn’t make it to Geneva or were in quarantine.
It was so nice seeing parents, students and staff, together at last !
After the speeches and description of the programme for 2020-2021, we all had food and drinks. The new students visited the school and played some icebreaker games.

It’s time to say goodbye, our year has come to an end. We’ve made more cherished memories and many more new friends.
We’ve watched you all learn and grow, and change from day to day. We hope that all the things we’ve done have helped in some small way.
So it’s with happy memories we send you out the door. With great hope and expectations, for what next year holds in store.
Have a wonderful summer Villa du Lac girls, we will miss you each and everyone one of you. We wish you all the best!
Lucélia, Berta, Aida & Kim
Even though we didn’t have a full House, we tried to make the best of our last weekend!
While we were living difficult times, it was great to have them all back on campus and spend this little time with them. Hope to see you all soon 🙂
