LEAVING THE SCHOOL FOR A WEEKEND

Students may leave school for the weekend with family or friends, as long as their parents inform the boarding staff (boarding@stgeorges ch) the preceding Thursday

ENRICHMENT ACTIVITIES ORGANISED WITHIN BOARDING

Co-curricular activities are learning experiences that complement what students learn in the classroom and form an integral element of boarding life.

Co-curricular activities help to develop various facets of the students’ personality development For an all-round development of a child, there is a need of emotional, physical, spiritual, and moral development that is complemented and supplemented by enrichment activities

Clubs and activities are offered by the school most weekdays, between 4 0 0pm and 6 0 0pm In addition, boarders-only activities are held throughout the afternoons and evenings during the week

Activities are offered to boarders on both Saturdays and Sundays at weekends These range from on-site activities such as fitness club, football matches and service activities, to off-site activities such as skiing

during the winter, mountain or water-based activities during the autumn and summer terms, and shopping trips, cultural excursions, and various workshops Some weekend activities are compulsory for Years 6 to 10, and we strongly encourage the older students to take up these opportunities too

We are committed to helping students develop their character and skills during their time with us at St George’s, and feel it is important that they challenge themselves in order to grow as a person

Most of the activities and clubs are covered by school fees, but occasionally there will be a special extra-curricular activity or trip that is not In these circumstances, we will obtain prior consent from parents to add the charge to the school bill

ENRICHMENT ACTIVITIES OUTSIDE BOARDING

We encourage students to pursue existing hobbies, and while many varied clubs and activities are offered at St. George’s, some activities are provided through local clubs.

The boarding staff are here to help set these up Such activities may for example include:

Horse riding, sailing, rowing, fencing, football on a more intensive level.

WEEKEND ACTIVITIES

The weekends are for fun and relaxation! Fun and varied activities are arranged every weekend for boarders to take part in They are an excellent way to make friends, explore Switzerland’s beautiful countryside, visit cities, museums, and art galleries, and discover new interests We are always developing our weekend programme and welcome suggestions from boarders for new ideas!

BOARDING PRIVILEGES

REWARDS & SANCTIONS

A system of rewards and sanctions is based on setting oneself high standards and accepting responsibility.

Boarding staff at St George’s expect high standards from students at all times, and in return, students can expect to have their efforts recognised

Students’ efforts (academic and community) impact not only on themselves but on the whole school and boarding community A rewards and sanctions record is kept by the boarding staff and is at all times communicated with – and visible to – the students at all times

Rewards are given for consistent bedroom tidiness, community service, charitable efforts and acts of kindness

Sanctions are given for infringements of boarding expectations

Sanctions, such as loss of free time, electronic devices, and other privileges, are part of the Boarding House Rules, however, the boarding staff encourage students to suggest sanctions that show they have reflected on their behaviour and understood the importance of mutual respect and trust within the boarding community

STUDENT VOICE

Boarders contribute to the boarding community in many ways. The student voice is central to the boarders’ ownership of boarding.

Our Boarding Committee meets regularly and any student from Year 6 to Year 13 can make suggestions

Topics of discussion include: whole boarding issues, expectations, student initiatives, planning, organising and coordinating social, sports and service events in boarding
