skiing trip

The adventurous Dodo’s class, oozing with eager, travelled to Norfolk Snow Sports Club to do some rapid skiing on the 17^th of December.
At approximately 10:00 the bus arrived. After we’d gone inside, we had our boots and skis fitted. This took about 15 minutes. (Unfortunately we had to put up with the horrible smell of the well used boots).

Once everyone had got their boot, coats and gloves on, they were set to go!
The Dodo’s trekked outside, when we were faced with the tubing, nursery and big master slopes. Our own pupils Alfie and Ollie were experienced skiers and went on the master slopes.
The instructor, who was dressed as Santa, then put us into two groups. He told us how to put our skis on and move around. Me and my friends were warming up by playing follow the leader. Once we’d grasped the hang of moving, my group made our way up the nursery slope.

As we side stepped half way, the instructor told us how to ski down. We needed to put our hands on our knees, keeps the skis parallel and look straight.
After it was going well he started to mix things up a bit. As we slid down the ramp, he gave us instructions like hop and touch your toes.
Although the class were having an amazing time, before we knew it, it was time to stop. Once we got all our gear off, the dodos chilled out upstairs while having lunch. Me and my friends chatted about how fun it was.

Overall, the dodos class had an amazing time. Why don’t you have a go?
