Reunion 2026 – 80 Rings of Growth
July 4–5, 2026 | Hasliberg Goldern
After ten years, we are delighted to invite Ecolianers back to campus to celebrate 80 years of the Ecole in Goldern.
The 80 rings of growth have formed through the lives of generations of former Ecolianers. With this Reunion, we continue that story and draw inspiration from its roots for the Ecole of today and tomorrow – Ecole Now & Forever.
The Reunion is open to all former students, staff members, helpers, and volunteers, regardless of the year they were part of the Ecole.
