Hotel Management School Les Roches |
|
 |
“Ecole des Roches", an international institute for young people, was founded in 1954 by Messrs. Marcel and Jean-Pierre Clivaz. During its first years, this new establishment came to be well recognised throughout France and Italy. Five years later, students from Europe and the United States of America were attending the School. A few years later, an initial enrolment of 150 had risen to 220 students, of 75 different nationalities coming from five continents. Two other brothers, Roger and Francis, joined the family team. In 1960, the College du Leman and the Hotel Cisalpin were founded by the Clivaz organisation.
In 1979, as a result of the prevailing world wide economic conditions and a growing demand abroad, Les Roches International School became "Les Roches" Hotel and Tourism School with instruction in English. The classical, scientific and commercial branches were transferred to the College du Leman in Geneva.
Les Roches was virtually destroyed by a fire, in April 1985. Despite considerable destruction to the property and its contents, the School only lost one day of classes, because arrangements were immediately made to house students and instructional facilities in three hotels in Montana, which were rented for a three-year period. Construction of entirely new buildings began in May 1986. In June 1987, the School moved into its new buildings.
On June 21, 1986, a management contract was signed between Gesthotel SA, a limited company owning the School property, and the Swiss Hotel Association - which is recognized by the Swiss Federal Department of Economics. Since January 1, 1987, this School, with a current enrolment of over 900 students, with 60 nationalities represented, has been approved by the Swiss Hotel Association, under the name of: SWISS HOTEL ASSOCIATION HOTEL MANAGEMENT SCHOOL LES ROCHES.
