Arts and Athletics: Hand in Hand
By tradition, sports play a particularly significant role in the curriculum at the Lyceum Alpinum. The Lyceum boasts the most comprehensive sports and games facility of any educational institution in its class. Athletic activity provides a meaningful balance to conventional studies while, at the same time, promoting good health, stamina, and skill. Team sports develop and strengthen camaraderie, sense of duty, and loyalty. In addition, the school also offers a variety of opportunities for creative expression through painting, handicrafts, cooking, stage plays, film, photography, singing, and musical instrument instruction. Also in these fields, students are individually guided and encouraged by qualified and dedicated instructors.
