Ski Trip - January 2011

The ski trip for 2011 has now taken place. Thirty-five students and three able teachers travelled out to Zurich airport on January 2nd and took a bus to their destination in Erhwald in Austria. This trip for the first time incorporated the option for students studying German to get their ski lessons in German with German speaking instructors and they had one hour tuition with German teacher, Miss Quigley, each evening. Whilst the emphasis was on the ski trip, this option allowed German students to gain exposure to the language in this Austrian ski resort.

The ski trip included the following:-

One week half board in the Sonnenburg Hotel in Erhwald.
Flights and transfers.
Two hour ski tuition per day ( option of four hours )
Hire of ski poles, boots and skis.
Ski insurance.
Lift pass for week.

Apres ski activities included swimming, skating, tobbogonning and, in the hotel, a games room. There was also a visit to an ice hockey match. The students returned to Ireland on Sunday, 9th January.
