The Ecole Winter Camp SkiVenture

The Ecole SkiVenture is located in the Canton of Bern, Switzerland, within the Bernese Alps. The campus functions as an international boarding school and provides a peaceful, contained environment for both educational activities and snow sports.

The Ecole d'Humanité is a small, progressive, and holistic international boarding school. As a Not-for-Profit Organization, the school fosters a supportive and engaged community committed to the values of cooperation, internationalism, and closeness to nature. Its educational mission focuses on developing students' creative strengths, encouraging their readiness for engagement in society, and cultivating a sense of personal responsibility.

The Ecole SkiVenture is a 2-week all-inclusive programme covering accommodation, meals, activities, and gear. Students stay in a traditional Swiss Chalet with daily meals provided (three on weekdays, two on weekends). The core curriculum features language lessons three times daily (Mon-Fri), culminating in a certified TELC assessment. Five afternoons per week are dedicated to snow sport lessons, with all necessary skis/snowboard gear and lift passes included. The comprehensive schedule also features organized evening activities, a Saturday cultural excursion (Verkehrshaus and ChocoWelt), and full-day supervised skiing on Sundays.

Apart from snowboarding and skiing, there are many other activities woven into the camp schedule to foster community and engagement. Students participate in long-standing school traditions such as school assembly, community singing, and presentations/discussions about a topic. Evenings offer social and creative fun, including learning folksdance, enjoying a lively disco night, and taking part in a boarding family cooking evening, among various other options.
