Since its establishment in 1903, Collège Champittet has been providing outstanding education to both local and international students. 
Unique among Swiss boarding schools, we offer a truly bilingual French/English education as well as a large set of extra-curricular activities, sailing being our most popular one. And while our Swiss heritage stretches back in time over 120 years, our exacting Swiss standards demand that we always look forward to taking on new challenges, master new skills, and open up to new people, places and cultures.

Programs

Together with IMD Business School and EHL, we’ve combined the best of Lausanne’s world-leading educational institutions into a transformational journey of growth, adventure and fun. Our workshops are tailored to provide a unique learning experience through interactive and hands-on activities. These workshops run every morning and are divided into programmes for Juniors and Seniors.

The main language during camp is English. Students with basic everyday knowledge of English are welcome to join us, as participants will improve their English naturally throughout the camp.
