With questions of the Olympic Legacy now set to loom large over the coming years, now is a better time than ever to keep school learners active by organising a once in a lifetime school ski trip.

Ski Adaptable have brought a new perspective to school ski trips by making it more accessible than ever, with hand-picked ski resorts which not only deliver cost effective skiing, but also offer a range of ski trip experiences which can be tailored to your groups age, ability and budget. In addition, all Ski Adaptable trips booked by 31st October now include a free après ski program.

It is widely believed that school ski trips can help to improve confidence, fitness, and also leave school learners with memories of a trip which will last a lifetime. In addition, 34% of people had their first skiing experience whilst on a school ski trip, meaning school ski trips are the single biggest source for new British skiers.

With questions of health and safety on school ski trips rightly abound, the words of Judith Hackett, Chair of the Health & Safety Executive, should echo loudly: “You can't teach young people about risk from a text book - they need some practical experience”. By organising a school ski trip with a recognised specialist tour operator like Ski Adaptable, you will not only benefit from years of experience, but also a company that organises trips for over 10,000 young people each year, and a company who are assured members of the School Travel Forum.

Matt Connelly, Ski Adaptable Sales Manager says: “It’s great working in the school ski trips business. It’s our job to look at amazing ski resorts and say, right, is that suitable for our groups, and how can we make it affordable?”. Ski Adaptable know that school ski groups come in all shapes and sizes, which is why there are a range of ski resorts on offer, from small Italian resorts which are great for younger first time groups, to large French, Swiss and Austrian resorts which cater for the more progressive skiers. All resorts are accessible by coach or air, and all resorts have been selected based on their snow history. Not only that, but Ski Adaptable only work with hoteliers and ski schools which are like us – flexible, passionate and understand the needs of school groups.
