Here a few student comments:

“A great experience and a once in a lifetime opportunity.” – Alex (Year 11)

"Skiing was one of the best things I have ever experienced, I have already asked to go next year as the experience on a whole was honestly amazing. The teachers were so good, the hotel was very nice and everything was very well planned out. I 100% want to go next year!" - Kayleigh  (Year 10)

“You fall over a lot, but it is great fun!” – Lewis (Year 10)

Alex from year 11 put together a short reflection of his experiences on the trip:

"Even if you have never been skiing before, I suggest you go; even if you're not the type to go fast - you will still love it. The Fullhurst trip is a really good opportunity to go skiing with a lot of your friends, being able to laugh in their faces as they fall and crumple over, seemingly helpless, multiple times on the snowy white ground.  I loved challenging my friends to see who could ski better and progress faster.  Skiing pushes you to your limits of what you can handle with the immense speeds at which you can traverse the beautiful landscape! It is amazing! Even if you fall over multiple times, it does not matter as every time you fall you improve. . As you get better you will go faster; at first that may seem impossible but eventually it will get easier.

At the beginning of the week, I wondered how I'd ever become as good as the teachers; I was repeatedly falling over and failing, crashing into others and knocking them over.  By the end of the week, I was speeding down the mountain with the wind blowing at my clothes, feeling unstoppable. I felt superhuman as I was skiing, the adrenaline rushed through me. It wasn't only the skiing part that was great fun; being able to just look out my window and casually see a mountain just less than a few miles away from me was epic.  Also when up the mountains, being able to look down at the towns and other mountains nearby, the views were extraordinary. By the end of the trip I had many tales to tell, my legs were dead and my sleep  was interrupted but I'll never forget this epic experience."

Here are a few more quotes from students who took part in the trip.  I think it is safe to say that a great time was had by all!
