The buildings on our three campuses reflect a century of student-centred pedagogical innovation. From an 18th century château to the ultra-modern Centre sportif, facilities are designed, adapted and renovated based on the latest research in education. Our campuses combine more than twenty buildings dedicated to teaching across disciplines including sciences, arts, and sports. Recent developments include the Jura building for Upper Primary at Campus des Nations, a brand-new Centre sportif at La Grande Boissière, and the renovated Pregny site for Early Years at Campus des Nations.
La Grande Boissière houses a Centre sportif and a dedicated STEM Centre, while La Châtaigneraie features two sports halls and a sports field with playgrounds. Campus des Nations offers a large sports hall, an all-weather basketball court and a martial arts dojo. Across the three campuses there are extensive outdoor spaces and learning pathways that support physical education and after-school activities. These facilities enable team sports, individual fitness and performance-based programs.
Our campuses include a dedicated STEM Centre for science, technology, engineering and mathematics. The Centre des arts provides an auditorium plus theatre, music and dance studios. Science laboratories are available within the secondary-school buildings. Libraries and collaborative spaces, including the CoLab library on Campus des Nations, support research and study. Additional learning spaces, such as the Jura building for Upper Primary, complement science and technology education.
Performing arts are supported by the Centre des arts, with an auditorium, theatre, music and dance studios and two performance venues. Outdoor performance and learning spaces include the Greek Theatre and other campus venues. Extensive outdoor areas, an educational garden and learning pathways foster outdoor education and clubs. The campuses also provide dedicated spaces for sports, arts and social activities that run after school and on weekends.
