Tonight, Terray learned a lot about mindfulness during our Wellbeing Session for Pillar 4’s Healthy Bodies and Minds. In this session, we discussed what mindfulness is, and how to incorporate it into our daily lives. We learned about slowing down and being present in each moment and strategies to slow down our brains when it feels like our thoughts are going too fast or when they overwhelm us.

Our girls are stepping up to a challenge of taking 5 minutes a day to slow down, take a breath, and savor every moment in life, no matter how big or small. This session was especially enjoyable as we all took time to close our eyes, breathe, and ground ourselves in the present. Now, we invite you to join us and take a moment to relax your shoulders, close your eyes, and take some nice deep breaths in and out.

We encourage our students to develop a love for reading by providing a carefully selected collection of books, short stories, and even French books. It was a truly enjoyable moment spent together, some students read in pairs, while others read aloud to the house parents. Seeing their enthusiasm and engagement made the experience even more special!

Tonight, we enjoyed a delicious mix of flavors from Greece! We had chicken kebabs and souvlaki in fluffy pita, with plenty of Tzatziki and fresh veggies piled on top. For dessert, we savored a special Greek yogurt with raisins. Everyone enjoyed tonight’s meal, with some girls taking some extra pita for the road!

International meals here at CDL are made even more enjoyable by the country fact sheets that decorate the cafeteria. Below, you can read some interesting facts about Greece! Did you know that the Greek language is one of the oldest written languages still in use today? It is over 3,400 years old!

A wonderful evening filled with entertainment and talent! Our girls made us proud. We will update you on the competition rankings soon. The night was packed with incredible performances, keeping the suspense alive until tomorrow!

Jade was all set to enjoy a few days away with her classmates in the charming, rustic ski region of Champéry. We wished our Grade 5 students an amazing time on the slopes, making memories and embracing the winter adventure! ⛷️❄️

This past weekend at Terray was nothing short of incredible! With the sun shining and spirits high, we had plenty of achievements to celebrate,from impressive horse presentations and stunning artwork to horse riding sessions, Talent Show rehearsals, cooking adventures, and even some gardening skills. Our boarders never cease to amaze us with their enthusiasm and dedication!

Each weekend, our students have the opportunity to engage in a variety of activities, helping them explore their potential and nurture their passions. Beyond the busy schedule, we also took time to unwind with a trip to town,stocking up on essentials and enjoying a well-deserved day out off campus.

As always, we are so proud of our students for their curiosity, creativity, and commitment. Stay tuned for more exciting updates from Terray!

Even in cold and rainy weather, we have great weekends at Terray!

This weekend was packed with our usual activities, including horse riding, hip-hop dance, cooking, and tennis. Friday, we took time to complete our weekly guided reading session together, allowing us to unwind and relax together.
