Boarding

Boarding at Verbier International School is designed to feel personal, supportive, and full of opportunity.

With around 45 boarders supported by six members of residential staff, students benefit from a high level of individual care and attention. Our boarding team knows each student personally and is there to support them academically, socially, and emotionally throughout their time at VIS.

Living in the heart of Verbier gives students the opportunity to experience one of the world’s most inspiring mountain environments while being part of a close-knit international community. Boarding life combines structure and independence, with time for study, sport, activities, friendships, and relaxation.

Students learn to take increasing responsibility for themselves while knowing that experienced adults are always close by. From sharing meals and contributing to chalet life to exploring the mountains and supporting one another, boarding at VIS helps young people develop confidence, resilience, independence, and meaningful friendships.

We offer a range of boarding options, including full boarding, weekly boarding, Winter Term boarding, and flexible boarding arrangements for day students.
