Dear Champiteans
Welcome to the 121st back to school! The Pully and Nyon campuses welcomed 850 students aged 3 to 18, including almost 100 boarders for whom school is also home. These boarders now have access to 4 entire floors of the St Augustin building. The design of the new boarding rooms is the fruit of many years' experience of the needs of boarding students, as well as our desire to innovate in terms of the living and study environment. Parents who would like to get an idea of boarding school life, even out of pure curiosity, are cordially invited to an evening meal with our boarders, as well as a tour of their residence.
The extended management of the school remains stable. We welcome the new Dean of the International Baccalaureate, Amanda Gardiner, who succeeds David Newsam, who has retired.
The timetable has been redesigned to further improve the quality of school life: juniors will start at 8.30am, since they are already at school at this hour (instead of 9am), and for seniors, we are keeping late afternoon classes to a minimum and avoiding lunchtime waiting time by placing some classes between noon and 1pm.
The theme of the year will be well-being and mental strength: a host of initiatives will be taken by teachers and pupils to reflect together and take action to increase our resistance to life's hazards. Expect some exciting challenges.
Regarding after class, no fewer than 84 activities take place every week on the Pully campus, not to mention the success of the activities and holiday clubs in Nyon.
What unites us: passing on to children the joy of learning. Learn again and again. To be curious about the world and humanity. Lifelong learning for self-fulfilment.
Long live Champittet !
By learning to plan their time wisely, students can be more productive, develop great study habits, and create a balanced lifestyle – one that fosters both personal and academic growth. Mastering this essential skill also sets them up for future success.
“What do you want to be when you grow up?” Here at Champittet, we know that inspiring children to dream big while envisioning their future is a core part of education. It’s also the focus of Dare All Trades Day, or JOM (Journée Oser tous les Métiers).
