Facilities & Sustainability

ABOUTOUR SCHOOL ENVIRONMENT

The state-of-the-art school and sport facilities and equipment on our three campuses provide our students with the right tools to become active global and digital citizens.

ABOUTOUR NURSERY - LES MARRONNIERS

Opened in November 2014 in Vevey, our Les Marronniers Nursery invites children from 18 months to 3 years old to “explore, discover, and grow” as they take their first steps into the adventure that is education.

Our nursery facility is perfectly aligned with our philosophy of encouraging development at a child’s own pace, and introducing activities that are appropriate for each developmental stage. The rooms are bright, spacious, fun and safe – a perfect space to discover, touch, paint and play.

ABOUTOUR PRAZ-DAGOUD CAMPUS

Our Praz-Dagoud campus with its extensive whole-school sport facilities were built in 2014 to meet eco-friendly standards. It is more than just a building, it embodies the sustainable principles we hope to instil in our students through the solar panels on its seeded roof, a biotope designed to help with the conservation of frogs, a PTA-funded “Discovery Garden,” and other environmentally-friendly technologies.
The campus houses classrooms equipped with the latest educational technology, specialist art and music rooms, an inviting and relaxing library, a school shop, a teaching kitchen, and an administration quarter. The spacious main hall transforms into a busy dining room at lunchtimes, a conference room for parent-teacher meetings during the day, and a theatre for school shows in the evening. Its first-class sports facilities include a sports hall that meets international competition standards, an outdoor multisport pitch, and two full-sized outdoor football pitches.

ABOUTOUR ROCHES GRISES CAMPUS

Our Roches Grises campus is located within an easy, five-minute walk of our Praz-Dagoud campus. Such proximity enables our students and staff to take full advantage of all the facilities we have to offer.

It combines modern technology with the comfort of a traditional Swiss school building to house state-of-the-art science labs, a fully-equipped music room, two computer suites, two art rooms, a multi-purpose hall, large modern classrooms, and a lecture area. Two smaller buildings bordering the main school were later added to provide more space for individual study and language lessons, a design technology lab equipped with CAD technology, a research library, and a study room for our older students.

ABOUTSUSTAINABILITY

As an EcoSeek-member school, we are committed to both our local area and the planet. We not only encourage our staff and students to recycle their personal rubbish, but also ensure that all compostable waste, whether from the kitchen or school events, are recycled in the school garden or by local biofuel and waste management companies.
Our Environmental Committee has also worked tirelessly since 2015 to make our school as eco-friendly as possible. Their successful ventures include the implementation of a meat-free day in the Secondary section, a reduction in the amount of plastic we use on a daily basis, and a greater awareness of environmental concerns throughout the school. Even our infants are given the chance to participate in our green initiatives thanks to our biotope and PTA-funded discovery garden.
