Canada Trip 2018
This year saw Le Rosey’s second Canadian skiing trip,
and students had the full Canada experience: an NHL game
in Calgary, the beauties of the Canadian landscape from
a dogsled and five amazing days in the Cariboo region in
British Columbia. This was the true highlight of the whole
trip – heli-skiing and endless, deep powder snow.
The Importance of Science
and New Teaching Spaces
It has been four years since we opened the Paul & Henri Carnal Hall and we have used Chalet Sandra in Schonried for no more than two winters!
So, although we are set to renovate bedrooms over the next two winters, the heavier earth-moving equipment is never far away at Le Rosey, and
the strategic plan for the next quarter of a century is now in the final stages of gaining council approval. We will then be in a position to continue the
improvement of our facilities - most notably, in the shape of a new teaching area and great sports centre.
The objective for these pedagogically-focused future projects is threefold:
1. To provide the teaching spaces of the future, ready to welcome a mix of individual work (assisted by artificial intelligence perhaps), lectures,
collaborative work and of course, classes with one or two teachers in the room, where layouts can adapt according to the activities planned. In the long term,
all current classrooms will be transferred to these new spaces.
2. To increase the exposure and importance of Science at Le Rosey by moving the whole department into the most modern laboratories, equipped with
the latest materials and technology to allow the subject and students to thrive. Roséens will be able to complete advanced research projects and teachers will
have access to glass-walled labs, with the aim of encouraging an interdisciplinary approach to Science, uniting its purpose and discoveries with other subjects
to foster cross-curricular learning.
3. To instil the spirit of entrepreneurship into Roséens by, for example, housing several start-ups which will themselves benefit from the presence
of Rosey students to test prototypes, carry out market research, receive design input and request science experiments through the development of
interdisciplinary projects by each class. These projects will be essential for encouraging an entrepreneurial mentality amongst students.
Predicting the future and how we envisage teaching Science, History or Entrepreneurship is as fascinating as it is complex. For several months, we have
been organising several exploratory trips across the world, seeking inspiration from the most innovative ideas and keeping ahead of those international
schools which specialise in technology. Recent visits have included: Hotchkiss, Choate, Dubai American Academy, Eton, Harrow, Wellington College,
Khan Academy Labs, Shija Hutong in Beijing, and many more.
Roséens and their teachers play a key part in these reflections on the future and the whole Roséen Alumni community, parents and friends are always
welcome to share their ideas over a coffee on campus chez Ljubo!
De l’importance des sciences et de nouveaux espaces d’enseignement
Quatre ans déjà que nous avons inauguré le Paul & Henri Carnal Hall et deux hivers que nous utilisons le chalet Sandra à Schönried ! Si des travaux plus légers de
rénovation des chambres sont prévus les deux prochains hivers, les grues ne sont jamais loin du Rosey et le plan de quartier de la décennie à venir est en passe d’être
adopté par les autorités. Nous serons dès lors en mesure de poursuivre l’amélioration de nos infrastructures avec notamment un nouvelle zone d’enseignement et un
grand centre de sport.
L’objectif des futures constructions liées à l’enseignement au nord du Paul & Henri Carnal Hall est triple :
- Fournir les espaces d’enseignement du futur, prêts à accueillir un mélange de travail individuel (aidé par l’intelligence artificielle), de conférences, de travaux
collaboratifs et bien entendu, pendant encore quelques années, des cours avec un ou deux professeurs dans une salle dont la configuration peut évoluer au fil des
activités. A terme l’ensemble des salles de classes actuelles seront transférées dans ces nouveaux espaces.
- Augmenter la visibilité et l’importance des sciences au Rosey en y déménageant tout le département dans des laboratoires les plus modernes et bénéficiant d’un
équipement de pointe. Les Roséens pourront y effectuer des projets de recherche avancés. Les professeurs regroupés dans des laboratoires vitrés travailleront
davantage de manière collaborative entre les sciences et les autres disciplines qui rejoindront le centre.
- Instiller l’esprit d’entreprendre chez les Roséens, par l’exemple d’abord en hébergeant des start-up en résidence qui bénéficieront de la présence des Roséens
pour effectuer des tests de prototypes, des études de marchés, du design, des projets de recherche scientifiques, etc. Par le développement de grands projets trans-
disciplinaire ensuite pour chacune des classes. Ces projets intégreront une dimension de réalisation entrepreneuriale concrète.
Prédire l’avenir et la manière dont nous enseignerons les sciences, l’histoire ou l’entrepreunariat est un exercice aussi fascinant que complexe. Depuis plusieurs mois,
nous organisons de nombreux voyages d’exploration à travers le monde afin de s’inspirer des idées les plus brillantes et de continuer à dépasser les grandes écoles et
celles à la pointe de la technologie : Hotchkiss, Choate, Dubai American Academy, Eton, Wellington, Khan Academy Labs, Shija Hutong, etc.
Les Roséens et leurs professeurs sont partie prenante dans ces réflexions d’avenir et toute la communauté Roséenne d’Anciens, de parents et d’amis sont toujours
bienvenus pour partager leurs idées autour d’un café sur le campus chez Ljubo !

Sports There are days or sporting competitions which will forever remain in our memory and which perpetuate the virtues of our school and its traditions. Joy, respect, solidarity and the thirst for victory take centre stage if only for a day. When the rowing skiff Carlo leaves its boatshed at dawn, years of Rosey sporting history are unfolding on the shores of Lac Léman. And we can say the same of the snowy slopes of the Bernese Oberland that welcome the famous Rosey Races. Even if technology and artificial intelligence are increasingly shaping the world in which we live, sporting traditions will always remain rooted in Le Rosey. Vive le sport! Certaines journées ou compétitions sportives marquent à jamais nos mémoires, perpétuent les vertus de notre institut et ses traditions. La joie, le respect, la communion et la soif de victoire nous envahissent l’espace d’une journée. Quand au petit matin, le yole de mer Carlo sort de son hangar pour profiter du lever du soleil, des années d’histoire du sport au Rosey défilent sur le Léman. Et que dire des pentes enneigées de l’Oberland Bernois qui accueillent les célèbres Courses du Rosey ? Même si la technologie et l’intelligence artificielle débarquent à grande vitesse sur notre planète, les traditions sportives restent ancrées au Rosey. Longue vie au sport !

Bookfête
Friday, September 28th 2018 was Le Rosey’s
second International Book Festival known as
"Bookfête". Once again, students enjoyed a late
breakfast, and the PHCH was then open to eleven
authors and academics from (this time) France, Italy,
Switzerland, Spain, Norway, Guyana and the UK.
The warm, summery day was divided up into
three "plenaries" – whole-school events in the
Concert Hall – and three “chapters” – a total of
thirty-seven smaller events run by visitors, teachers
and students, in three languages and on topics ranging
from particle physics, colonial India and movies, to
adventure stories, fan fiction and the philosophy of
Harry Potter. We were really fortunate to have the
Caribbean poets John Agard and Grace Nichols,
whose readings were the highlights of the event.
A favourite activity was the hour after lunch,
when everything went very quiet and everyone –
students, teachers and visitors – simply settled down
in a corner or under a tree to read their books.
Marvellous.

Putting Nature at the Heart of our Educational
Programmes
In our new Life skills curriculum students discover the regions of French-
speaking Switzerland. The programme is as follows:
Class 5, Haute Nendaz (Canton of Valais).
Believe in yourself and respect others. Discover the alpine fauna and their
environment on mountain bike across the trails.
Class 4, Le Moléson (Friboug).
Loving relationships and sexuality. An atmospheric night walk and Alpine
chalet experience with all its customs and traditions.
Class 3, Château de Vaulruz (Fribourg).
The Danger of Addictions. Film about the life of the Château with
academic lessons on Geology and Climatology outside of the classroom, as
well as a day on the Mer de Glace glacier (Mont-Blanc).
For our spring music theme, we will be looking at naturally resonant wood
used to make musical instruments in the Risoux forest; and in History, we will
follow the path of a refugee crossing during World War Two.
Giving support to mountain farmers affected by the water shortage this
summer. Action: transporting material and cleaning the pasture.

Wilderness
Camp
Meeting Luca Belpietro – whose daughter is
now a Roséenne – allowed Philippe Gudin
to discover the authentic beauty of Africa.
After ten years of "Voyages Honneur" to Campi
Ya Kanzi, Luca’s outstanding lodge built at the
foot of the Chyulu hills, on a vast Maasai ranch
facing Kilimanjaro, Philippe decided, with Luca’s
invaluable help, to build a camp dedicated to
sharing this exceptional African experience with
students from Rosey and other schools around
the globe.
In designing the Chyulu Wilderness Camp,
Le Rosey aims to offer a life-changing experience
in one of the most beautiful places on earth,
between Mount Kilimanjaro and the Chyulu
Hills. Students will stay in a superb ecological
lodge, specially designed for young people from
all over the world: a safe place in a protected
environment. They will learn how to track
animals and will discover the extraordinary
variety of African wildlife. They will go on
remarkable expeditions to the Chyulu Hills cloud
forest. They will discover Maasai culture and
traditions, play sport, create artwork, debate
and teach in local schools. They will work in a
tree nursery, on organic farms; and in helping to
reforest the Maasai land, they will improve the
well-being of this community and will protect
wildlife.
They will create their own conservation
project and become its ambassador back in their
school and home country.
They will never forget Africa!

Do We Need to Teach More than
20 Languages to be International?
For some years now, International schools and related organisations
have been wrestling with the word “international” when coupled with
"school". It used to mean a national school in a "foreign" country serving
expats. But no one really accepts that as definition any longer. So, could
it simply mean schools that proclaim that they are international or
"internationally minded" following the internationalist approach of the IB,
for example? Some would say yes, but most would feel that this is not Statistiques & Nationalités au Rosey
enough.
So should we be more demanding, suggesting that the school has to have an international Le Rosey compte 447 élèves issus de 71 nations ;
population of students and teachers (perhaps with a stipulation that no more than a certain celles qui comptent 10 Roséens et plus sont : française,
percentage would be from one nationality)? Should it also have an international curriculum? suisse, britannique, chinoise, japonaise, américaine,
Or should it even have different curricula from different countries? And what about languages? russe, indienne, bulgare, italienne, turque, mexicaine,
Should there be more than one language of instruction? And what about other languages than espagnole.
those of instruction? Shouldn’t there be a commitment to mother tongues?
Some schools would get close to many of these criteria. Others would excel in some and fall
short in others. Yet Le Rosey may be unique in satisfying them all.
And possibly the most important of all is the commitment to mother tongues. It is not just
the number taught in the school – nearly 30 since beginning the IB – more important is the
mentality behind so many languages.
Le Rosey is committed to its two world languages but also to the culture of its 70
nationalities. In fact without respecting national origins, perhaps the very word "international"
has no value. To be international is not to forget national roots: it is to understand them and at
the same time to respect and understand others.
En bref, there can be no international without the national.
The final word to Pushkin, a Russian of African origin, in an English translation of a poem
inspired by a French translation of an English poet where he summarized the importance of our
national origins and our mother tongues. In "Eugene Onegin" he was speaking of his own love of
Russia and Russian but his words could just as well refer to any language and any homeland: Le Rosey compte 163 professeurs issus de 30 nations ;
les quatre principales sont : britannique, suisse, française
Land where I learned to love and weep
et américaine.
Land where my heart is buried deep
Of course, many Roséens have more than one homeland, but that is, as they say, another
story.Vous pouvez aussi lire
