In response to a popular request from our families, we are delighted to integrate swimming into the curriculum at Champittet Nyon. From preschool to Grade 8, every child will now complete five weeks of swimming lessons per academic year.
For the past few years, our families have told us that they would like swimming to be part of the school curriculum. After a year of logistical organisation and evaluating test groups last spring, we are thrilled to make this wish a reality.
Our new swimming courses are designed to help children build up their skills and confidence week by week. Students will be placed into appropriate levels based on their abilities. Each of the main levels – Bronze, Silver and Gold – will be split into three sub-levels. Experienced coaches will guide and motivate our children as they learn to swim and master different techniques.
At the end of the five-week period, an evaluation will be given so that students can reflect on their progress. Finally, they will be rewarded with a medal in recognition of their effort and newly developed skills!
Essential for water safety, swimming is also a wonderful workout for the body and mind. By introducing children to swimming from an early age, we aim to help them build an important lifelong skill and develop confidence, both in and out of the water.
We can’t wait to dive into this new adventure together.
Happy swimming!
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).
The Winter Ball is an eagerly awaited annual tradition here at Champittet, but this year brought a twist: the school’s first ever Masquerade Ball. With the theme “Black and Gold, don’t forget your mask!”, this year’s winter dance was organised by 14th-grade IB students, and the event was open to students in grades 9 and 10.
