On 19 August, the Moa Team will be going on a ski trip to Mount Hutt. The cost for this trip will be $49.00 plus $17.00 for the bus. This price includes ski rental, lift ticket, and lesson. I would like to point out that additional gear the children will need such as waterproof pants, glove and sunglasses or goggles cannot be rented from Mount Hutt. There are ski rental offices in Yaldhurst Road at the Shell station and closer to Riccarton.
The students have the choice of either alpine skiing or snowboarding but they need to be careful with their choice. Unfortunately they won't be able to change their activity when we get to the mountain, so if they are finding snowboarding more difficult than they thought, they cannot strap on a pair of skis. The cost for sking and snowboarding is the same.
Parents are more than welcome to come along to help out. We have a wide range of skills amongst our students, from first-time novices to A-grade skiers.
The children will have to go up on the bus, and there ought to be room for several adults as well. Parents are welcome to take their own vehicles. The children will need to be at school at 7.15 AM.
I'm sure the children are really looking forward to this, and we will work to make sure that it all goes as seamlessly as possible.
