Daily life
Routine is important and understanding what your average day will look like is helpful as you get used to life on the mountain.
Our daily routine changes with the seasons; knowing whether you are skiing in the afternoon or in class, is all down to your personal timetable and the Aiglon schedule. Regular attendance checks throughout the day help us to know where everyone is. EVENINGS & WEEKENDS During free time you have access to the Sports Centre, Music and Art Departments, can visit your friends' houses or go into town. Weekend programmes include further excursions, expeditions or cultural trips. EXEATS An exeat is a weekend away with parents or other adult (with parent permission). Approval is granted at the houseparent's discretion. More info about exeats and other important parts of school life are in our Handbook. MONEY You have everything you need at school, but for extras, a weekly allowance is an option. We recommend the following: Year 9: Year 10: Year 11: Year 12-13:
CHF 30 CHF 40 CHF 50 CHF 100
Students younger than 15 must have a parent present to open a local bank account. For the Junior School, students receive CHF 20 per week. This pocket money is charged as part of the school fees. 19
