SkiBound | | Overall, this was a fantastic trip for the students. The conditions were great, the food was super and the progress students made was exceptional!
However, the area we skied was not suitable for the students as the resort rep took us somewhere different to what was agreed on the pre visit. This was sorted on the 2nd day though and we were moved back to where we were supposed to be skiing. The hotel was dirty, but this was sorted after I spoke to the manager. The hot lunches were good, but, I have reported back to the company that the restaurants need to be lower down, particularly for the beginners within the group.
Overall, problems which did arise were sorted within 24hrs. I will 100% use this company again. | 24 February 2020 |

We were escorted to each location so there was minimal disruption of finding the places and the time for each activity was maximised. The staff were friendly and helpful. The school was designated an area within the museum to set up, put coats/bags and eat lunch. This was useful with 60 children as they were in one area and toilet trips could be well planned and organised with the other teachers on the trip. The children enjoyed the experience and were given things to take home following the trip. Learning in school has followed on from their experiences. | 20 February 2020 |
