Ski trip 2026

Dear Parents, Carers and Students,

Thank you for showing interest in the ski trip 2026. The dates for this trip will be the spring half term 2026 (Saturday 14 February-Saturday 21 February 2026).

We are going to Sansicario which is part of the Milky-Way Valley with access to Sestiere and Sportina from Cesana in Italy, with the company ‘Halsbury Travel’. We have negotiated with the company and can offer this year’s trip for £1590. This cost will include:

Coach travel to the resort (+20 hour journey)
5 hours ski school a day with students supervised at lunchtime on the mountain by our staff. We have ensured that there will be small ski groups of no more than 10 students to an instructor.
5 days skiing and full equipment hire including ski helmets
1 night swimming and pizza night after skiing
Full board in hotel including packed lunch at Hotel Solaris (3 to 4 in a room)
Option for hot lunch provided at the hotel
Skiing on 400km of piste across the different villages
Insurance and taxes paid

We don’t provide ski clothing but can help arrange hire or suggest ways to buy this quite cheaply. Expected cost for clothing would normally be approximately £100 and is not included in the price quoted. We will provide a suggested kit list, especially for beginners, in June 2025 this will allow to have more time to organise getting items.

Skiing is an expensive holiday which is why we provide a lot of time to pay for it.

The school may provide financial support for this trip if you make clear your special circumstances. Students will need a valid passport and GHC card.

If you are interested in your child signing up for this trip, please complete the online form: https://forms.office.com/e/Z2WPhByTWJ. All students that submit the form will then be entered into a raffle to be selected to go on the ski trip. A waiting list for the students that are not successful in the raffle will be in place should any students drop out. We will notify you if your child is selected.

Closing date to submit forms: Monday 21 April 2025

There will be a Parents’ InformationEvening held in November 2025. Dates will be emailed closer to the time. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions.

Yours sincerely,

Tanya Rivard-Morton
