New Generation.
We booked lessons for dd then 6, it was over Christmas and they had no others her level, they were all beginners, so rather than her being bored, they gave her a couple of days privates, rather than a week of ski school. It was brilliant, she came on loads, can't praise them enough.
Just back yesterday having spent 200 euros on morning lessons with ESF and never again. They started at 9, but spent so long time wasting, they didn't actually start skiing until 10, Half an hour of skiing and they stopped for snack. Lesson finished at 11.45 and dd said she skied three times.
She has also just told name that she got left behind when her ski came off and didn't know where to go! Apparently, she skied down to the chairlift to see if they were there, they weren't, so she got on the chair and went up again to see if she could find them, but was scared in case they had skied down and she was on her own. She did find them again, but didn't want to tell us about this as she thought we would be cross!
Wish I had known this when we were there. Can you imagine the worry she mist have had? She is 8!
