Champittet student Kevin Sigona takes triple gold at Swiss Junior Diving Championship!

We are immensely proud of our IB student Kevin Sigona for his extraordinary achievement of winning three gold medals at the recent Swiss Junior Diving Championship!

Kevin took gold in the 1m springboard, 3m springboard, and 3m synchronised diving categories. Kevin is a member of the Swiss Diving National Team and holds over 20 Swiss Junior Diving Champion titles. As a student balancing athletic competition with academic rigour, Kevin has long embodied the values of Champittet. His passion, persistence and accomplishments continue to inspire us all. It’s not easy to fit competitive diving into the tight schedule of an IB student.

Kevin regularly dedicates some 20 hours per week to diving and on-the-ground training. He also participates in diving events abroad – but still manages to get his homework done!

“This achievement was made possible not only by Kevin’s hard work but also thanks to the school’s unwavering support, for which he is immensely grateful”, say Kevin’s parents

Congratulations, Kevin, on these fantastic results. We will be rooting for you on the journey ahead – all the way to the Olympic dream!
