Location and Campus

Le Châtelard Academy was built as an elegant hotel for the European nobility in the late 1800’s. It has conserved its Belle Époque style. Surrounded by a beautiful park of 4 hectares, the building is in a valley, between the mountains and the lake, at an altitude of 1000 meters.

The centre was equipped with modern facilities in 1992. Our bedrooms lodge 3 to 4 students and have full bathrooms inside and balcony. There are living rooms, a cafeteria, a games room, dining rooms, a theatre and a chapel. Students are also provided with well-lit classrooms, a library, a computer room and new study hall.  There are also painting and ceramics workshops, laboratories for language learning and photography together with a Cordon Bleu kitchen classroom.

Le Châtelard is also furnished with an aerobics gym, fitness centre and gymnasium. The school has three tennis courts and a basketball court. Other sports facilities outside the school are available to our students.
