Dear Champiteans,
The conflict in Ukraine led to reflections and decisions concerning the school's policy: it can be summarised in two parts.
On the one hand, the moral obligation to act in favour of the victims of the war, materialised by the collection of basic necessities in Pully and Nyon, as well as the reception of Ukrainian students who have fled their country, under the status of "humanitarian scholarship", until June at least. This is without forgetting the needy in other countries of the world: the Collège Champittet Foundation continues to finance projects in Madagascar, Lebanon and Thailand.
On the other hand, in the phrase "to build a peaceful world, we need a peaceful school", the affirmation of non-discrimination of any nationality. No member of the Champittet community can be held responsible for events and must continue to find the school a supportive environment for learning and self-development.
Some predict the end of globalisation as we have known it for the last 30 years or so: the return of nationalism, the Covid pandemic, the limitation of free trade and the questioning of post-war universal values would prepare for a new world. No matter: schools must continue to train the leaders and influencers of tomorrow, those who will know how to intelligently fight global warming by decarbonising human activity, and who will know how to defend the fundamental notion of democracy and freedom.
We are proud to announce that Collège Champittet has once again been ranked among the 100 leading private schools in the world by the Spear’s Schools Index!
At Collège Champittet, our culture of lifelong learning includes our teachers just as much as our students. Learning doesn’t stop when we leave the classroom or when the school day ends.
At Collège Champittet, our annual Career Day gives students a valuable opportunity to meet professionals from diverse industries and explore their future goals.
On 15 March 2025, music lovers at Collège Champittet were treated to an exceptional concert by Franco-Italian mezzo-soprano Lea Desandre and French lutenist Thomas Dunford.
