St Catherine’s College Hits the Slopes - Monday 07 Apr 2008
A 32 strong group of St. Catherine’s College staff and students has just returned from a strenuous but fun-filled week’s skiing in Switzerland near Gstaad. Teachers, Mrs Hughes, Miss Black, Mr Martin and Mr White accompanied the group which consisted of a mixture of complete novices to the more confident and capable advanced skiers.

The group was lucky enough to experience excellent snow conditions for the entire week and both staff and pupils agreed that the tuition received from instructors at the Haut-Lac International Centre where they stayed, was second to none. Pupils received 5 – 6 hours lessons per day and made rapid progress throughout the week. All were awarded their SnowLife Ski Awards ranging from Level 3 to a very commendable Level 6.

Lessons were followed in the evenings with a varied programme of activities including karaoke, house tournaments and not forgetting the memorable St. Patrick’s night disco!!
