About
VIS inspires independent, global citizens to lead compassionate, courageous and purposeful lives.
In order to achieve this we:
- Care for and contribute to our alpine environment and community.
- Embody our Guiding Principles.
- Aim for excellence in all our endeavours.
VIS is located in the heart of the beautiful village of Verbier. The school is based in two different buildings: Chalet Mascotte and Chalet Orny. The school was founded in 2011 and has grown progressively without losing its family ethos and focus on outdoor education. The school is distinct in that it offers year-round education but also welcomes students and families exclusively for the Winter term. VIS also offers boarding throughout the year, a Winter term experience, as well as weekly and flexiboarding.
Vision
To be recognised as a significant day and boarding school delivering a broad education which leads to the development of outstanding global citizens.
