OUR PHILOSOPHY

At Beau Soleil, we believe it’s what you do that counts. This philosophy holds true both for our students and staff, from the classroom to the boarding houses, out into our extraordinary alpine environment and way beyond. Whether you are teaching an IBDP class or taking part in one of our amazing expeditions, or are a member of our summer camp team, we are a school that believes in the power of action, engagement, and participation.

Every summer, we welcome children agedinto our exceptional environment for 1 to 5 weeks. Our world-leading summer camps are packed full of fun! Our campers are challenged, encouraged, and supported through a wide range of activities, experiences, and engaging language lessons, to create the perfect summer. Our camp philosophy promotes the growth of international friendships and helps the children to grow in confidence.

Our summer camp is closely tied to the values of Beau Soleil. Our students and campers experience a unique holistic education which is built around four core values: Respect, Responsibility, Ambition and Determination. These values underpin all that we do, providing a strong moral compass to our diverse international community from around the world.

At Beau Soleil our summer means Fun! We welcome campers from around the world who are supported by motivated and enthusiastic summer camp monitors, section heads and language teachers. Our Summer Camp takes advantage of our spectacular school campus offering not only a safe clean environment for our campers but the opportunity to live the unique culture College Alpin Beau Soleil offers- here, it’s what you do that counts.

Every effort is made to ensure that students have access to the best services, emotional support, and a warm family atmosphere at Beau Soleil. All staff play a vital role in ensuring the well-being of our students.
