EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES

Knowledge acquisition is of course the principal objective of the school, however during childhood and adolescence, natural qualities develop and are established. With this in mind, we support our students in their personal development, offering them a wide range of sports, cultural and artistic activities such as:

CHESS

Chess is known for its educational and creative aspects, in addition to being an enjoyable activity. Observation, imagination, analytical skills, memory, insight and logic.

DANCE

Beyond specific expressive skills, dance allows students to develop social and civic skills, such as autonomy and initiative.

STREET ART

This workshop is an introduction to street art. The objective is to use a set of graffiti techniques and discover the materials, then use a spray to create a mural on a wall.

JUDO

Judo classes take place every Thursday and develop important qualities: respect, politeness, courage and self-improvement. Learn more here.

JUDO AT MONT-OLIVET

Mont-Olivet School’s objective is to combine healthy academic ambition with the personal development of our students. This also requires the right balance between body and mind. Sport contributes to this, especially judo.

Mont-Olivet School has entered into a long-term partnership with the Swiss Judo and Ju-jitsu Federation, which will be implemented from the beginning of the school year in August 2022 in two ways:

1. In conjunction with the sports teachers, the integration of judo teaching into the sports programmes from Preschool to 7P and then self-defence from 8P to 11S.

2. Creation of a judo club, Mont-Olivet Judo, open to our students and external children.

We are the only private school in Switzerland and in Europe to launch a project of this magnitude. It is ambitious, innovative and affirms our values in common with those of judo: respect, politeness, courage, sincerity, modesty, friendship and perseverance.

HOLIDAY CAMPS

During the Easter, summer and autumn school holidays, we offer various holiday camps for all ages and interests. The aim of these camps is the children’s enjoyment, while taking into account their age, preferences and interests.

Mini camps: these are organised exclusively on the school site with a new theme each week (around the world, cowboys, chocolate, etc.).

Multi-activity camps: we offer sports activities in the morning in our gym or in our tennis hall. The afternoons are dedicated to activities outside the school (swimming pool, barbecue by the lake, cultural visits, Kids Fun Park, bowling, etc.). Our professional drivers provide daily transportation with our school buses.
