Summer learning programme
A summer camp to learn, grow and have fun
Chantemerle is a private boading school founded and managed by the Wegmüller family since 1966.
This summer, Chantemerle invites students to a unique programme combining language learning, hands-on projects and personal growth together with sports, fun activities and outdoor adventures.
Hosting a summer camp in an all-year round boarding school offers unmatched convenience, safety, and academic quality. This continuity between the academic year and the summer camp ensures that students benefit from a seamless, personalized, and highly effective learning approach. With small class sizes and attentive guidance, every participant receives the support they need to make real progress and build confidence.
Beautifully located in nature, overlooking lake Geneva and the Alps, Chantemerle stands out as a genuine boutique school: intentionally small (65 students), with personalized academic and pastoral care in a healthy family atmosphere.
Learn French, English or German - Practical, immersive, and fun language programmes
At Chantemerle, language learning goes beyond textbooks, combining hands-on exercises and immersive experiences to make learning French, English or German efficient and enjoyable.
Whether in small groups or dynamic workshops. Our programme transforms language learning into a practical, engaging, and memorable journey, equipping students with the skills and confidence needed to thrive in the 21st century.
Make It Count !
Fun that makes you grow
Two-week session from July 19th to August 2nd, 2026
Vacation time is precious. Your child can just let it pass them by… or they can turn it into moments that really matter to them: stepping out of one’s comfort zone, getting to know themselves better and gaining confidence. Make it Count isn’t just fun, it’s fun that really matters and helps your child to grow.
Five workshops are on the program:
- MasterChef-style cooking challenges—to manage time and boost team spirit
- TEDx workshops and debates—to express oneself with confidence and defend one’s ideas
- Etiquette workshops—to learn the codes of social interaction
- Nature challenge—to develop perseverance and resilience
- Digital well-being—to regain control of one’s time online
Outdoor adventures, sports, cultural excursions, and a two-day trip to Europa Park in Germany round out the program.
Think like an engineer
Applied Mathematics & Physics through engineering principles
Programme available from from June 28th to July 19th, 2026
In this hands-on STEM programme, students ages 12-17 reinforce essential maths and physics principles — from algebra and geometry to forces and energy, to tackle real-world problems.
Led by professional engineers from EPFL, this programme gives students a unique opportunity to strengthen their core maths and physics skills while developing their critical thinking, creativity, and teamwork skills along the way.
A highlight of the programme is a guided visit to EPFL (Ecole Polytechnique Federale in Lausanne), where students see world-class laboratories, research facilities, and engineering projects in action, connecting classroom theory to cutting-edge applications.
