Staines Prep Pupils take to the slopes ...
28th March 2009
The Staines Prep Ski Trip to Morgins, home town of Swiss World Cup skier Didier Défago, winner of the major Downhill Races in Wengen and Kitzbühel in January, was a resounding success with all fourteen pupils having a memorable week. The Beginners' Group developed from the nursery slopes to ski as far afield as Les Crosets and down La Foilleuse, the main run into the village of Morgins. The Advanced Group enjoyed developing their skills on red, black and controlled off piste slopes. All of the children felt a tremendous sense of achievement and are looking forward to returning to the slopes as soon as they can.
Headmaster, Peter Roberts said: 'It is great to be able to provide these sorts of opportunities for the children and see how quickly they progress. It was a wonderful trip.'
