Boarding

Boarding HouseWe offer boarding facilities to students aged 9 and above. We provide boarders with a happy, friendly and rewarding residential experience in a cosy, home-like environment. From September 2012, the school will offer separate boarding facilities for male and female students in traditional Saanenland Chalets situated right at the school, in heart of the picturesque village of Saanen.

Boarders learn how to live, work and play together, sharing experiences with people from many different countries and cultural backgrounds. We aim to provide a caring 'home from home' for boarders, where they can enjoy happy and fulfilling lives as part of an international boarding community, having the feel of a large family.
Games Room

The busy life of boarding provides many opportunities for students to contribute to school life. Boarders are encouraged to join the Student Council to represent boarders' views, and actively work together to support social, charitable and sporting initiatives and events.

Living RoomWe want life for our boarders to be an unforgettable experience which will prepare them for all they will encounter in later life. Experience shows us that friendships made in our Boarding House, lead to lifelong friendships based all over the world!
