Snowboarding Trip to Austria During the Easter Holidays, students had the opportunity to visit Austria to try out snowboarding. “After 27 long hours in a coach crossing Europe, the snow-capped Austrian mountains came into view and the excitement started to build as the annual snowboarding trip finally arrived in the Austrian resort of Matrei. The weather was perfect, with a mixture of blue skies and sunshine with regular snow – which helped to cushion the regular falls. A proper winter wonderland!” “The students did amazingly well developing their snowboarding skills over the week and were a real credit to the Academy. A huge thank you to Mr Baker, Mrs Baker, Mr Tucker and Miss Trerise for making it happen.” (Mr Banfield, English Teacher)
