The school

A 14th-century palazzoequipped for learning today.

The main school building began as an aristocratic residence and later served as a Canadian headquarters during the Second World War. Today, four floors of classrooms and study spaces open onto its vaulted, light-filled central atrium.

Behind the historic façade are fibre-optic connectivity, interactive classroom displays, a well-equipped science laboratory and an infirmary. Students also gather here each weekday morning for breakfast and announcements.

A practical note: Lanciano is a historic hill town, and the school occupies a multi-storey heritage building with stairs. Families with mobility or accessibility needs are encouraged to speak with Admissions so individual arrangements can be discussed.

Most meals are served in CCI’s own mensa and restaurant at Allegria, a 500-year-old former inn. It gives the school community a table of its own, within a building that is part of Lanciano’s history.

The student lounge nearby is open to boys and girls. It is a relaxed setting for foosball competitions, table tennis tournaments, PlayStation, karaoke parties, Student Council events and movie nights by the pellet stove.

Facilities & activities

Our campus extendsinto the community.

CCI has its own fitness centre, while Lanciano gives students access to a much broader network of sporting and cultural facilities. The result is an active daily life without trying to reproduce an entire town behind school gates.
