What a week it has been here at school!  We are busy, especially now that all of the new ways of working have become normal, and I am pleased that the students have adapted so quickly and completely.  It is magnificent to see the majority of our students back here on campus, and we can’t wait for the return of our remaining children.

On Tuesday, Léman celebrated the Grade 12 students’ graduation ceremony at the Shangri-la hotel in Chengdu. It was a fantastic event and we are all very proud of all of the students’ achievements, not only academically but also their contribution to all areas of school life.
