A day in Lausanne!

Dear all,

To make the most of today’s school-free day, we went to Lausanne to explore the history of the Olympic Games, listen to the anthem from the inauguration, and buy some souvenirs. In addition, the girls had the chance to finalize the last items needed for the upcoming mountain weekend, which starts tomorrow! Keep an eye on the blog for updates from Leysin.

We look forward to sharing exciting mountain activities and outdoor experiences soon!

Best wishes,
The Villa Terray Team

 

 

Random Pictures of our Boarding Life!

The girls had a fun time in the playground during social hours, and we were delighted to have a visit from our lovely boarding counsellor, who introduced herself to our boarders and explained her role in the boarding community. We enjoyed breakfast in Léman, our evening meditation—a moment of bliss after a busy day. Today, the girls also voted for the house captain and house representative. The results were announced by Jade, and the chosen students are Alessia and Julia.

A Fun & Busy Day in Terray !

We had a full house today as students gathered to mingle and cook together. The kitchen was filled with delicious aromas, though it quickly turned into a bit of a chaotic scene—far too many cooks in one place! But what truly mattered was the shared experience and the opportunity to start building close friendships.

We wrapped up the afternoon with some group games, and we were delighted to have a senior student visit to volunteer and join in the fun.

Look Out,Weekend Here I Come!

On Friday after school, we invited boarders from a different house to join us for a movie night—a wonderful start to the weekend! The girls enjoyed their badminton lesson this morning, then we played a great new game Sushi Go ( lots of giggles and competition took place). In the afternoon, we took a trip to Geneva. We stopped for refreshments and ice cream, and then visited a few stores. Julia and Alessia decided to buy some essentials to cook a special dish for Sunday. Judging by the ingredients, I can’t wait to try their creation. Stay tuned to find out how it turns out!

First weekend at JB Terray!

Dear all,

This first weekend was very eventful for the girls, as they enjoyed a variety of activities including horseback riding, watching a movie in Champs des Bois, cooking, playing board games and football, making new friends, and playing the piano.

We are very much looking forward to spending the year together. We are proud to see the values we cherish being embraced from the very beginning—kindness to one another, internationalism, spirit, and a commitment to improvement through hard work. We are truly proud of this strong start, girls!

Best wishes,

JB Terray Team

Welcome Assembly & Treasure Hunt

Dear all,

Today, the families and students attended the Welcome Assembly led by Mr. Usher, followed by a delightful Treasure Hunt to explore the campus. We’re excited to share that a team composed of kids from Concha and three JB Terray girls finished in first place! We’re confident they now know all the houses and buildings on campus.
