So far this term we have managed two days of skiing at Rainbow Skifield. While the first day was grey and gloomy our second was spectacular. Blue skies and fresh powder...what more can you ask for.
While the whole mountain isn't quite open yet, the more experienced skiers have still been able to ski from the top down and work on their skills and our newer skiers have been working on their skills on the lower slopes.
This year we've implemented a new Health and Safety measure while skiing. Identifying children on the slopes has always been tricky, especially since we encourage the use of helmets. Instead of going traditional with hi-vis vests, we've supplied kids with bright green mohawks to apply to their helmets. There's no mistaking a child from Lake Rotoiti School now!
