The biannual Lower School Family Ski Trip proved once again to be a fantastic opportunity for pupils and parents to bond, learn, and create lasting memories in the snow. Set against the stunning backdrop of the Dolomites, this year’s adventure was filled with sunshine, laughter, and plenty of skiing. From day one, families took part in private group tuition, giving everyone – from complete beginners to seasoned skiers – the chance to improve their skills side by side. It was inspiring to see how quickly confidence grew on the slopes, and by the end of the six-day trip, even those who had never skied before were whizzing down the pistes with ease. The experience was made all the more special by the beautiful blue skies that greeted us each day, a fabulous hotel that kept everyone cosy and well-fed, and of course, the unbeatable Italian pizzas – a highlight for many! As the week drew to a close, excitement reached a peak with a friendly slalom race. In true community spirit, not only did the pupils take part, but all the adults joined in too. It was a brilliant way to finish the trip – full of cheers, challenges, and a touch of healthy competition. A huge thank you to the ski instructors, staff and all the families who made this trip so memorable. Bellissimo!
