At Hastings School, we believe in offering our students a wide range of enriching experiences that go beyond the classroom. One of the highlights of the school year are our incredible ski trips, which allow students to combine adventure, learning, and personal growth. Organised by our dedicated Enrichment Department, these trips provide students with the opportunity to explore new destinations, learn valuable life skills, and create lasting memories with their peers.

Astún Ski Trip

For our younger students, the ski trip to the snowy slopes of Astún was an unforgettable adventure. Year 2 to Year 6 students embarked on this exciting journey, learning the basics of skiing in a safe and supportive environment. With enthusiastic instructors and plenty of snow, each student had the chance to develop their skiing skills, build confidence, and enjoy the stunning mountain views. The trip not only enhanced their physical abilities but also fostered teamwork and perseverance, making it a wonderful experience for all involved.

Andorra Ski Trip

For our older students in Years 10-12, the Andorra ski trip was the perfect way to enjoy some time away from the classroom while challenging themselves on more advanced slopes. Nestled in the heart of the Pyrenees, Andorra offered an ideal setting for skiing and snowboarding. Whether beginners or seasoned skiers, all students had the opportunity to enhance their skills with professional instructors. The trip also provided a chance for students to bond outside of the academic environment, fostering a sense of camaraderie and independence.

Boí Taüll Experience

This year, students from Year 5 to Year 10 were given the incredible opportunity to experience the slopes of Boí Taüll, one of the most stunning ski resorts in Spain. Located in the beautiful Catalan Pyrenees, Boí Taüll is renowned for its breathtaking views and excellent skiing conditions. Our students had a fantastic time exploring the resort, improving their skiing technique, and enjoying the winter landscape. Some of our students even earned diplomas for their impressive skiing abilities, a testament to their hard work and determination on the slopes.

A Supportive, Fun, and Memorable Experience

Each of the ski trips at Hastings School is more than just a fun break from routine; it’s a chance for students to challenge themselves, develop new skills, and create lasting memories with their friends and teachers. These experiences are made possible by a dedicated team of teachers and staff, all of whom ensure the safety, well-being, and enjoyment of the students. Whether helping on the ski slopes or offering support with other needs, our staff is there every step of the way, making the trip unforgettable.

The commitment of our Enrichment Department and teachers makes each ski trip a resounding success, fostering both growth and adventure. As we look ahead to the next round of ski trips, we’re excited to continue providing our students with opportunities that help them become well-rounded individuals, creating bonds and life lessons that will last a lifetime.
