Update - 19th Dec 2012
On the
last night of each ski trip we try to hold a fancy dress evening within the
hotel or local town. This year’s theme will be ‘cowboys and Indians’. Please
pass this message onto your son or daughter.
We
have also had an update concerning the spa evening at the Bormio spa which will
involve sauna’s, Jacuzzis, steams rooms, a large pool and other treatments; all
students (and teachers) are required to wear a swimming hat. I have therefore
purchased enough hats for each student, which they may wish to personalise once
we are in Italy. Students though may wish to bring their own swimming hat.
Students are required to bring normal swimming kit for this evening activity
and do not have to wear specific clothing like a swim suit or speedos.
Below is a reminder of key
dates for your diary that was sent out on the previous letter.
