On September 15th, we welcomed the parents of our students in preschool and Grades 1 and 2 for the official inauguration of The Village.

In September, Champittet students led two outstanding community events at our school – a local lake clean-up day, and a charitable chess tournament to support the Champittet Foundation’s humanitarian projects.

At Collège Champittet, we know that reading is important, which is why we’ve taken steps to instil a love of reading in our students.

Collège Champittet is the Swiss school open to the world – and part of that openness means taking our students beyond the classroom to experience new cultural treasures, new places and new ways of thinking

This summer, campers aged 11 to 17 came to Collège Champittet from around the world for our annual Summer Leadership Camp. 

On Friday, August 22nd, our community celebrated our multicultural identity with our first International Day, organised by APEC, our Parent Association.

On August 16th, our Welcome Day gave our new day and boarding school students and their families a dedicated occasion to discover more about life at Champittet.

To get into the back-to-school spirit, we held a series of special events for our teams, including a Team-Building Day and a Professional Development Day.

Welcome back to school! 

School may have been out for summer, but our facilities and operations teams were hard at work giving Collège Champittet a summer makeover – just in time for the return to class !

The Village is inspired by our play-based learning approach. This dynamic, engaging environment aims to nurture the developmental, social and emotional needs of children aged 3 to 6, providing a superb start to their education.

At Collège Champittet, the end of the schoolyear is a time of reflection and celebration of our students’ achievements.

Summer is finally here, along with our eagerly awaited Champittet Leadership Camp! We have a phenomenal team of counsellors ready to bring our campers the summer of a lifetime – full of energy, adventure, humour and discovery.

On May 23rd came the moment that every Champittet student awaits with anticipation and excitement: graduation. 

Our school chaplaincy delivers a wide variety of spiritual activities for students interested in exploring and developing their faith. The end of the school year marked a particularly meaningful period for our students preparing to receive their First Holy Communion or Confirmation. 

As the school year draws to a close, one thing is clear: our students have not only gained access to knowledge but have also developed self-confidence and a taste for learning.

We are proud to share that four student members of our Philanthropy Club travelled to Houston, Texas (USA) to represent Collège Champittet at the 2025 Nord Anglia Education Student Summit.

Tap dancing, four-hand piano, magic tricks and theatre… these were just some of the many talents on display at our Collège Champittet Talent Show! 

From instilling a sense of social purpose in our students to advancing humanitarian causes around the world, our international school is committed to making the world a better place.

Collaboration often leads to innovation – and for three days in May, a group of our Champittet students had the opportunity to experience just that with 200 students from across Europe at the NAE STEAM festival in Prague!
