Senior Ski Trip to New Hampshire

February 24, 2020

This year the Senior Ski Trip headed to the slopes of Cannon and Loon in New Hampshire, USA. Skiing in two separate ski areas allowed the students to discover a huge range of pistes. On the mountain, the snow conditions were fantastic and the students improved their skiing ability dramatically. Even the four total beginners were completing parallel turns on difficult runs by the end of the week. The evenings were spent doing a range of activities including inner-tubing, watching a university basketball match and a pizza night.

After five days of skiing, the group headed to New York for a day and a night to watch an NHL ice hockey match, enjoy the breath-taking view from the “Top of the Rock” and do a bit of shopping.
