Brillantmont International School - Lausanne Switzerland since 1882

Summer Course

The Brillantmont summer course has just celebrated its thirtieth birthday. It is extremely popular and many students return year after year. For some, it is their first time away from home ; for others, it is a way of getting to know Brillantmont before commencing the school year in September.
The summer course is for boys and girls aged 12-17 and students come from around 30 different countries. They study French or English in the mornings and take sports classes in the afternoons. There are many evening activities and a busy excursion programme at weekends.

Students choose to stay between two to six weeks. The programme is not a

fixed block. This means that if a student stays for six weeks, he/she will study something new each week and will join new activities and excursions. All departures and arrivals take place on Saturdays. We want the summer course students to make progress in their chosen language but we also want them to enjoy themselves and have memorable experiences. The programme is great value for money because there are no hidden extras in the price – everything is included. Only a small amount of pocket money needs tobe provided.
Many summer school staff also work at Brillantmont during the school year. The Direction of the summer course is the same as during the school year.
