Trips and Challenges

Early in the term we had the whole school challenge. Beau Site students featured strongly, helping collect points for their respective Houses and showing the way to younger and older students alike.

Beau Site is full of football talent and we are able to field both girls' and boys' teams. Training is rigorous and we are hoping for more friendly fixtures next term.

It wouldn't be La Garenne if we didn't introudce our students to the joys of hiking as soon as they arrive. This year's new Beau Site intake enjoyed a fantastic trip up the mountain before the snow came. Some had never experienced such a landscape before - and even for those who are used to our amazing environment, it never ceases to inspire.

Alongside hiking comes overnight expeditions. We start off gently, with easy treks and comfortable if rustic overnight stays in mountains refuges. The students soon get used to living a more basic lifestyle, even building their own fire which serves as both as source of warmth and a place to cook.

And finally, firmly indoors this time, Beau Site students excelled in our recent Chess Tournament. They faced strong opposition from older students but more than held their own over two gruelling sessions. Well done!
