Ski Trip to Passo Tonale, Italy April 2009
We are organising an 8 day trip to Italy for a skiing holiday which will take place in the school holidays 4-11 April 2009. The visit is open to students in Years 7, 8 and 9 who will be on the school roll at the time of the trip. We will be travelling by plane and coach to Italy.

The major aim of the visit is to enable pupils to learn, practise and improve their skiing skills in a party of friends with expert tuition.  On completion of the trip, students will have gained many key skills that will be of value for life: they include leadership, teamwork, communication planning and organisation, responsibility, decision-making and time management.  Safety of the students at all times is important. The group is accompanied by experienced adults and experienced ski instructors.

Previous skiing trips have been very successful - here are some of the comments by students who have taken part:


“The ski trip 2008 has been the second best time of my life. The first was the ski trip in 2007! It has also been the second most depressing, having to sit on the coach and look out the window on the way back having left my favourite thing in the world =(.

Thanks to everyone and especially the teachers for making the trip so amazing and putting so much effort into us having a good time. I recommend next year to anyone, you will have the time of your life, no matter what!”
Liam, Year 11 Student

“The ski trip was really good. I enjoyed skiing, even though the boots hurt! I think that more people should have come.”
Amy, Year 8 Student


“Skiing was a great laugh and it was good to see everyone getting better as the week went on. All the activities were fun and I met lots of amazing new people.”
Georgina, Year 10 Student
