Shi Trip To Vars, France

A party of thirty four pupils and staff recently travelled to Vars, France for a week of skiing and cultural experiences.

The group of pupils from years 7 to 11 improved fantastically throughout the week, having lessons in both the morning and afternoon, led by extremely experienced French ski instructors.

Many of the boys had not skied before, apart from 1 session on the dry ski slope in Cardiff.

Conditions throughout the week were superb with fresh snow for most days of the week combined with sunshine, making it a thoroughly enjoyable week for both pupils and staff.

Skiing was combined with organised activities in the evenings which the boys excelled at whilst also practising their French language and customs whenever possible.

Mr. Williams, Mr. Hutton and Mr. Park enjoyed the week with such a well-behaved group of pupils that the next ski trip is already being planned.
