Day 5 - the dreaded ski exam!

Today we were all determined to listen carefully to our instructors and do exactly as we were told as we knew they were watching us extra-carefully! You'll be delighted to learn that everyone passed the test and is now a qualified skier! Tonight we'll receive our certificates and find out our grades at the presentation night.

Unfortunately poor Chad had a heavy fall today and has hurt his leg.  He's now back at the hotel and being spoiled rotten by everyone.  He's had a great chat with mum and dad and is in super form.  We know that you'll all be wishing him well.

Last night's bum boarding was fantastic fun with new records being set by many of the girls!  Luckily Mr Coetzee was able to restore some honour for the boys by winning the teachers' race!

Thanks for all your comments - keep them coming!
