SKI TRIP TO AUSTRIA 2023

Dear Parent/Carer

We are proposing to run a ski trip to Wagrain, Austria for students in Years 7 -12 over the February half term 2023, leaving on Friday 10th February 2023 and returning on Saturday 18th February 2023.

 The cost of the 2023 trip is £1050. The price includes:

  • A 9-day tour by executive coach with use of coach abroad
  • Ferry and port charges
  • 6 nights full board accommodation (3* hotel) plus meal on return
  • 6 days ski pass
  • 6 x 5 hrs lessons
  • Equipment hire including ski/boots/poles and helmets
  • Winter Sports travel insurance with Covid cover
  • Covid guarantee
  • The cost of SKI CLOTHING is NOT included.

The trip proposal is as follows:

  • There will be a maximum of 40 students accompanied by 5 staff.
  • We will be staying in Hotel Hauslwirt in Wagrain.
  • We will be skiing in the largest linked area in Austria!
  • Evening activities are included in the cost and will be confirmed nearer the time.

There will be no off-piste skiing

 If you are interested in your child taking part, please email Meg Harvey at Becktrips@beckfoot.org then if your child secures a place a deposit of £150 will be added to your Parent Pay and needs to be paid within 72 hours.

A payment schedule will then be set up once deposits have been received so that students can pay in instalments, the full balance must be paid by 18 November 2022.

Students who have previously taken part in the Ski Trip have found it to be a most rewarding experience. They have reported that they have increased confidence due to learning a new skill, experiencing a different culture and being part of a team. The students who go on the ski trip will be representing our school. It is therefore imperative that their behaviour is exceptional. In the event of serious incidents occurring whilst we are away, the school will reserve the right to send students home at the expense of parents/carers.

Please note that your child’s place on the ski trip is subject to their continued good behaviour throughout the school year.

If you would like your child to take part in the ski trip 2023 then please email Meg Harvey at Becktrips@beckfoot.org by 9 May 2022 places will be allocated on a first come first served basis.

Yours faithfully
