Middle School Ski Trip

Last week year 7/8 students traveled to Mt Ruapehu for the week of a lifetime.

From chilling out in our warm cosy hut to flying down the slope on our board or skis, we had an excellent time!


This was all of us at the top of Knoll Ridge.

This is our class at the bottom of Happy Valley after our very first run down.


Our Rangatira mascot :-)


Snowball fights and fun outside our hut.


We had amazing helpers in our hut. 


Lucky us! Maddie (& her dad Rob) and Summer chose to join our hut. It was awesome having them!


Meeting up in the morning to get our ski passes!


After dinner we wrote in our diaries!


We all had an amazing time and we are so grateful for all the hard work that went into organising this trip. We are particularly thankful to Mr Naden and our parent helpers Rob Ashworth and Mark Armstrong. 

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE

FROM 7/8 OD & Maddie & Summer

  17. Hello 7/8 OD

    It looks like you had a really fun time on your ski trip!
    That would be so so much fun to go skiing and snowboarding with your
    friends, I wish I could have gone too.
    Was it a school camp? How long did you stay there?
    Thanks,

    1. Hi Meg,
      Yeah it was a school camp and we spent 5 days on the mountain and had 3 days of skiing and snowboarding. It was really fun, does your school go on camps? If you do you should suggest going to the mountain to your teachers for your own school camp.

    2. Hi Jack,
      Thanks for your reply! Yes we do go on camps, But this year we haven't gone on camp yet but we are going to go in a couple of weeks time. We are going to a place called Otago, we are going on the rail trail. The rail trail is a place were you go to bike and we are also going to be camping at a nearby camp ground. We are going to be biking from 38 to 45 km each day! I am very excited.

  18. Hi Campion College!
    That looks like awesome fun!!
    Did you go there just for a field trip, or is it your actual school camp? Did you do skiing and snowboarding each day?
    Thanks!
