Well Done the Green Group!!


I had an interesting afternoon following the green ski group around. These children are beginners and this was only their third lesson. It was amazing to see how competent they had already become. Even those who had initially found it difficult were coping with chairlifts, skiing down long, snowy roads, getting up after they had fallen over, helping each other with encouraging comments, turning, slowing down..... and all this in magnificent scenery. Here are a few pictures. Unfortunately my camera battery ran down halfway through the class, but you'll get the idea! It's a bit difficult to see who's who but among the children were Sebastian, David, Ysabelle, Annika and Anna. At least one of them could be the Winter Olympic champion for 2015!

Dear David,

Glad to hear you're enjoying yourself - we've seen all the smiling faces. Hope the skiing gets easier as you practise more and more. We're missing you. See you on Friday.

David,

WHAT - you haven't skied into a building, been run over by a snow plough, fallen off the ski lift OR been forced to eat an artichoke??! You're obviously having WAY more fun than I did on Classe de Neige. Well keep up the good work, and don't puke in anyone's suitcase (yes that did actually happen) and remember to change your pants every day (someone wore one pants for 2 weeks).

Anna - it was great to see that your hair at the disco came out how you had wanted - seeing that made doing all those plaits worthwhile!
The photos from the ski slopes are fantastic. You all look very confident coming down that road. We're very impressed!

Dear Sam,

Glad to see you that you are all having a super duper time! We are very jealous.... We have already sent you three letters and anxiously wait for the postman to deliver a letter from you. Hope you have not forgotten us already.

Please thank Ms. Lewis for all the photos and news on the blog. It really is a great way for us to follow your adventures.

Missing you lots. Be good, work hard but most of all - have fun! PS and dont forget your Tommy Cooper jokes!



Kisses
