GEMS World Academy Switzerland We are at Prangins Castle to go on a treasure hunt around the castle to learn about the past for our unit of inquiry on generations.

G11 Students attended an Innovation Crash Course from Geneva Business School professor Francesco Derchi yesterday. Professor Derchi is passionate about spreading creative thinking within organisations, and his motto is, "Creativity will save the world." Thank you, Professor!

Safety is important to us. Luckily, it was a beautiful day for an evacuation drill, and students were organised and efficient. Well done, GEMS World Academy Switzerland!

End of recess made easier thanks to Peg Keiner bringing some Switzerland stateside. Wishing our friends GEMS World Academy Switzerland the same beautiful spring weather we have in Chicago!
