Some schools are struggling in the cold weather.
500 kids at the Geisendorf primary school in Geneva were sent home after the boiler broke down and temperatures plummeted to 9 degrees.
As the breakdown happened at the start of the weekend – the problem wasn’t noticed until Monday.
The heating was fixed and the school reopened the next day.
In Lausanne, 200 students at the la Barre Primary College shivered in class for 5 days as temperatures failed to get above 14.
Teachers were told not to open the windows to keep what heat there was in the room - but this led to a rise in CO2 levels.
Temporary heaters were only installed after parents demanded the city take action.
