Luxury boarding school with huge queues for admission. Do not repeat our mistakes: the daughter entered at the second time. When choosing a school abroad, we chose studying in Switzerland. It’s fabulously expensive, but the level is beyond education, and equipment, and technical capabilities (well, very nice, well-groomed, near the mountains and a lot of other subjective amenities). However, while the court is on the case, while we lazily chose - when sending documents, we received a polite letter that the places on the course ended. Not expected, of course. It would seem that pay the money - and you get the place. Then, the documents were straightened out as clearly as possible. Here, thanks to the consultant Alexandra: she, too, was divided up from our "return", so we developed a whole plan for the date of the new reception. Two weeks before the start of the collection of applications, we did all the docks (translated into English, certified by a notary, etc.), prepared a full package - and in the morning (Alexandra clarified the first day of submission) sent all to the school. Accepted! Quickly (until they changed their minds :)) we paid the receipt for the first year (they decided right away, but you could also pay for the semesters) and began to prepare for departure (the school sends an invitation for a visa for students, the ordinary Schengen will not work here). We've got such an epic: we lost a year, but we tried to use it all the same, and learn from our mistakes. How will the first year come to an end? Let's add a review: the daughter likes it, but it’s not enough time for an objective assessment whether it was all worth it.

Both children studied at Champittet for a year. I can tell. That this is a unique niche school. It is different from other schools in Switzerland (we have been engaged in the process of choosing a school for several years, and during this time we have studied almost all options). If briefly about the advantages, it is: the national composition, the level of education and sports. For us, when choosing a school, it was not the rating that was important, but the situation in the school itself, which the child can be given morally, since he is outside the family for a long time. Based on this, we discarded some well-known schools immediately. Champittet, in this regard, can really be called a family. Children are not pressured, but there have never been any problems with behavior and bullying. Also in the school excellent food, the son is allergic. The school was warned in advance and provided with a doctor's certificate, and at school he was prepared according to an individual menu.

In 2019, they turned to Smapse agencies for help in selecting a school for a child. We planned to send the child to school for 3 months. As it turned out, in Switzerland there are not so many schools that accept at least a year. We liked Champittet for its location, we also managed to chat with a family whose children studied there. Of all the things available, it was really the best option. The child went to school at the end of August 2019. The child was delighted with the school. It was the first trip to Switzerland, and the country impressed him. I also want to thank the visa specialist Smapse Ksenia for the prompt registration of the visa.

I want to leave a review about the camp! Excellent program for young children. Apart from learning languages, there are many options. We took a leadership program. Very cool excursion program, not so many Russians. The school itself is small, good childcare. The child liked everything, the food was good, the territory near the school is also beautiful. Lots of sports and outdoor activities.
