In one of the most extraordinary locations in the heart of Europe, nestled in the beautiful and sunny Swiss ski resort of Villars, you find our school right next to ski lifts and mountain forests.
We are a co‐educational international boarding and day school for children from 4 to 18 years old. We are a family‐run private school, proud of our values, close‐knit international atmosphere, and cultural diversity. In this safe environment, students are stimulated to unleash their talents, and our flexibility allows them to explore their passions and excel in what is important to them.
The primary language at our school is English, and every student follows French classes intending to become bilingual. They learn this beautiful language from the moment they arrive to the moment they graduate.
Our International Baccalaureate Programme, the Middle Years Programme, and the International Primary Programme are globally accredited programmes of study. Our world‐class and experienced teaching staff bring a wealth of international experience, complementing our diverse student body.
For over 76 years, we have created a home away from home, or rather ‘A Family Away From Home’ for students from all over the world. They come from over 40 different nations, which makes internationalism a truly integrated part of our identity.
As one of the only schools in Switzerland to offer primary school boarding places, we welcome students from four years of age. Our trial programme of a few weeks is an excellent way for families to test out our boarding school before signing up for the school year.
Alongside the trial programme, our renowned and exciting Summer and Winter Camps filled with lake and mountain activities are proven ways to start a great boarding school experience with us here at La Garenne. Our dedicated admissions team can tell you all about it.){kind=logo}
