We hope teachers will derive as much enjoyment and satisfaction from the ski course as the pupils. We encourage teachers to participate fully in the daily programme to help develop the rapport with ski school and other resort personnel. Party leaders are responsible for supervising pupils out of lesson times and have a general overall responsibility in loco parentis for the pupils. We suggest you ask for a letter of consent from parents/guardians if older children are to be granted free time out of the immediate supervision of the teachers. Supervision is easier if children are organised in groups of 10 with 1 member of staff to each group.

Pocket Money and Currency
It is advisable to carry small amounts of currency for expenses en-route. Spending money may be kept to a minimum because so much is included in the price. We suggest about £10 per child per day. Some party leaders like to set up a banking service. Sterling travellers cheques provide security for large sums.
Evening Entertainment Activities
To keep your group busy off the slopes as well as on them, we have designed a wide range of Evening Entertainments by each resort. Click here to see a full list of activities.
Tips for Children
Continental traffic comes from the left so be very careful to LOOK BOTH WAYS. Do not walk into the road after checking right only. Oncoming vehicles will come from the left.
Listen carefully to instructions and ask for clarification if necessary.
Make sure you keep appointments to meet up with the group at the correct time and place.
No smoking, or drinking alcohol without the express permission of a teacher.
Follow all instructions from teachers and those in authority. Failure to do so may endanger yourself and others. Never act recklessly or you may cause an accident.
Report any injuries or illnesses immediately to your teachers who will provide first aid or arrange medical attention.
Do not stray or wander away from your group.
Do not go swimming without permission.
At refreshment stops, stay close to the party leaders and do not wander around the car park or near the road.
On the ferry, listen to safety instructions and never visit outside decks without permission. Take note of where staff will be seated throughout the voyage and of agreed meeting places. Stay in groups of 3 or 4. Staff will take turns to make regular tours of the ferry.
Respect the hotel rules and be polite to each other and other visitors. Keep noise down especially after 11 pm. Do not run along corridors and round blind corners. Do not socialise in bedrooms; a lounge is available.
Do not use bad language. This gives a bad impression of your school and of British students. Most people understand English.
Luggage should be restricted to one medium sized suitcase and one small bag for hand luggage.
Do not overpack. Apart from a camera, do not bring valuables and jewellery.
Always have with you the hotel telephone no. and any emergency contacts numbers.
Never explore on your own.
Know the fire drills.
