First day of skiing done

Well... It's been a great day, albeit very snowy.

The kids really took to their new skill and had a great time. After dinner the more advanced skiers moved further into the are and the beginners fine tuned their turning and stopping (well to a degree!!)

Tomorrow we will be skiing on the area just up from the hotel so with plenty of snow today and a clear sky tonight, conditions should be perfect and the pupils are chomping at the bit to get some miles under their skis.

In the hotel tonight we had a quiz which was won by one of the boys rooms.. That's costing me a few hot choculates and cakes on the slope tomorrow!!.. But was well worth it..

3 pupils have voulenterred to blog tonight so will hand over to them:

Hannah Williams

And finally... Twonk of the day... Nominated by their friends and fellow skiers, the first 'Twonk of the day' for his falling out of bed and ski crashing prowess  goes to Jack Cawthorn.  The converted towns hat and shirt was presented by Mr Evans (HPS ski veteran) and jack will proudly be wearing both for the day tomorrow!!!

That's all for today folks. Stay tuned in and I will keep you updated with the adventures, mishaps and ski elegance of our party tomorrow :-)
