 Poster: A snowHead
|
I was a fully certified Instructor in the early 2000s, APSI L4, ISIA etc. I taught in Australia and the US.
Now with kids of my own I am a ski school customer, and I'm finding it a bit challenging that ski schools don't tend to offer the full day programs that are absolutely de-rigeur in Australia in the US, they were typically 6 hours from 9-3 or 9:30-3:30, included lunch and a break and allowed mum and dad to ski for the best part of the day.
My kids next European winter will be 4 and 6 & good little skiers, the 6-to-be is parallel on reds and the 4-to-be is not far behind and will have 30-odd days in Australia this winter.
We're looking at perhaps skiing in the Aosta Valley next January and wondering if anyone has feedback on ski schools that offer a full day kids program, or at the very least good quality kids ski schools.
Thanks!

In true snow heads fashion I'll not answer your question  , but just observe that your kids sound like they are / will be of the standard that they could do morning ski school and then enjoy skiing with you in the afternoons? They are also going to be a much better standard of typical kids that age so end up a class with much older kids in any event.
Switzerland ski schools generally offer a morning & pm lessons with a supervised lunch break.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

@t44tomo is probably right. The best option, if you don't want to ski with them, might be to just take an instructor for the day. What they call an "engagement" in France. But it would be expensive, obviously.

Ski school runs 10am to 3pm in peak weeks
Austrian ski schools are mostly full day as standard, and you can pay for supervised lunch with the instructors

But finding a class for 4 year old child prodigies who are parallel on red runs might be a challenge.

Just ski with your kids yourself. Why would you want to outsource that and miss out of spending fun times with them?
