The Easter break saw 42 students and 6 staff head off to Tonale in Italy for the 2025 Ski Trip. The students waved goodbye to parents and boarded the luxury coach to start their 25-hour journey fuelled largely by Haribo and Jelly Babies. On arrival in Italy, we found fantastic conditions, both for the snow and for our accommodation. Hotel La Roccia welcomed us beautifully and was to be our base for the week.  We were all pleased to get into our rooms and meet the resident dog 'Gringo'.

Throughout the week our students and staff spent 4 hours a day skiing with the amazing instructors. Laura, Mirco, Edoardo and Enrico reported how impressed they had been with the behaviour of the group and the progress that was made. Something we were all very proud of. 

In the evenings we had a mixture of in-house events and visits to the local area. We headed out for Pizza one evening at the restaurant Miramonte, had a shopping trip, held a quiz night, watched the champions league games and all went out for gelatos at a local gelateria!

The week was a raging success, with laughs a plenty and some amazing experiences had by all who came. Now the dust has settled and we are back to school and our studies, we reflect on a brilliant trip and I'd encourage you to check out the photos in our Photo Gallery if you haven't already. Thanks to all the parents who have emailed and sent in cards to pass their thanks to the staff who gave up their holiday time to accompany the students. It was a brilliant time and couldn't happen without them. Thanks Miss North, Mr Mansfield, Mrs Tuck, Mrs Jamieson and Mrs Milburn! 

Now on to Austria 2026...
