Why Surval Montreux is a Special Place

While Surval Montreux is renowned for its stunning Swiss mountain views, the all girls boarding school also offers exceptional cultural learning opportunities. With fully accredited language instructors available even during the summer, students engage in immersive language sessions each morning at the Summer Camp. Afternoons provide the chance for private lessons, extending the learning beyond the classroom. Encouraging students to "live the language," excursions into Montreux are common, where they tackle various challenges like asking for directions, singing, purchasing tickets, and ordering drinks in the target language.

 

learning new languages and skills

Embracing cultural immersion further, students are expected to order meals in their chosen study language, fostering a natural and holistic learning environment. Additionally, the summer camp curriculum includes culinary workshops, where participants delve into both traditional and modern European cuisine and pastry making. Switzerland's notable density of Michelin-starred restaurants offers an inspiring backdrop for culinary exploration and skill development.

 

Beyond language and culinary arts, Surval emphasises modern global etiquette, offering regular classes during Summer Camp and throughout the academic year. Recognising the importance of cultural understanding in language acquisition, etiquette lessons provide a deeper insight into diverse cultures, enriching the learning experience.
