Fun on the slopes

Girls from Year 6 and Year 7 thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to take part in the very first Pipers Corner Junior Ski trip to Sansicario, Italy.

On the first morning the girls were assessed and placed into their ski lesson groups according to their ability before hitting the slopes.  The weather was sunny, but cold, and the girls made an excellent start to the week.  Each day the girls met for lunch back at the hotel to swap the best stories of the day.  Over the course of the week it was fantastic to see the progression of the girls on the slopes and their enjoyment of the activities they took part in.

As the week progressed, the weather warmed up and there were clear skies.  The beginners started to explore longer Blue Runs, whilst the more advanced groups explored the Red Runs and even part of the black Olympic Run.

In addition to skiing the girls were also given the opportunity to take part in a variety of après ski activities such as a pizza night, quiz, ski bob sessions (sledging) and a sightseeing stop in Turin before they returned home.

On their final evening the ski instructors presented the girls with their Ski School certificates and badges, which the girls are now proudly wearing on their blazers.

Miss Poore, Head of PE said, “It was a fantastic Junior Ski Trip and all the girls had a wonderful time. The weather and conditions were perfect and it was brilliant to see the girls’ enthusiasm and excitement throughout the week.”
