Institut International Notre-Dame du Lac

80 years of memories, values and generations. ✨

For 80 years, NDL has been a place where children grow, learn, dream and build lifelong friendships.

Thousands of pupils, families, teachers and staff have shaped this extraordinary story, rooted in Geneva and turned towards the future.

Today, we celebrate 80 years of education, community and transmission.
80 years of laughter in the playground, challenges overcome, talents revealed and lives transformed.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of this journey. ❤️

80 years behind us. A bright future ahead.

As we celebrate our 80th anniversary this year — and prepare to do so in grand style in the weeks ahead — we are filled with gratitude and pride for the incredible NDL community that has shaped our story.

Students, teachers, parents, alumni, staff, and friends: thank you for being part of this remarkable journey. 💙

Preparing to celebrate 80 years of NDL with our trusted partner 🌺

As we carefully design every detail of this special anniversary, flowers help tell the story of who we are: a school rooted in tradition, guided by beauty, and dedicated to the growth of every child.

Together, we are creating a setting worthy of this milestone — honoring our rich history while looking confidently toward a bright future.

Celebrating 80 years of NDL with grace, children, beauty, and community.
Honouring our past. Inspiring the generations to come.
