Junior Ski Trip

January 13, 2023

Starting the New Year with a bang, 143 students from Years 8, 9 and 10 enjoyed an amazing week of skiing in Le Deux Alpes, France. With five hours of skiing each day, as well as a fun-filled evening programme, all the students made amazing progress across the course of the week. Our beginner groups, many of whom had never even put on skis prior to the trip, ended the week being able to ski all the way down from the top of the mountain! For the advanced skiers, they enjoyed the opportunity to access the jump parks and off-piste areas of the mountain which provided greater challenges.
