Year 9 Ski Camp 2019
Ray Francis – Head of PDHPE
Thredbo really turned it on for the Year 9 Ski camp, with 1m of fresh snow arriving over the weekend before we arrived.
Year 9 students were treated to perfect snow conditions and 4 blue sky days in a row!
Perfect conditions for learning a new sport, or further developing skills, so it was great to see all of our students grasp this opportunity.
The group worked diligently during 4 hours of lessons each day to overcome fears, and develop their skiing or snow-boarding skills.
This Year 9 group represented themselves and Emanuel School impeccably during the week.
They were punctual at all meeting points and followed the guidelines designed to keep them safe whilst also allowing them some freedom and responsibility.
A big ‘pat on the back’ to the excellent staff who helped to make the trip such a success: Mr Furman, Ms Shanahan, Mr Gilhooly, Mrs Bishop, Mr Friend, Ms Norman and Mrs Laumberg.
The students are very fortunate to have such caring and supportive teachers, and it was a pleasure to spend the week with them and all of the Year 9 students.
