Learning Through Experience
At Verbier International School, what happens beyond the classroom is just as important as what happens within it.
We want our students to get involved, try something new, discover what excites them, and develop skills that cannot always be taught through textbooks. Whether climbing a mountain, performing on stage, designing a product, learning the craft of Swiss watchmaking, competing as part of a team, or developing a new practical skill, every experience is an opportunity to grow.
Our location in Verbier gives us an extraordinary environment in which to make this possible. The mountains become an extension of our campus, while partnerships with local organisations, businesses, sporting professionals, and cultural institutions give students access to expertise and experiences beyond traditional school life.
Through sport, music, the arts, outdoor education, technology, leadership, and our Skill Labs, students are encouraged to explore their interests while developing confidence, creativity, resilience, collaboration, and independence.
We believe young people often discover what they are capable of when they are given the opportunity to step outside their comfort zone.
At VIS, we give them those opportunities.
