SMJS Ski Trip 2-9 March 2024
29 pupils and three teachers on the trip of a lifetime……..Flight Cork to Munich, coach Munich in Germany to Ehrwald in Austria, 6 days, 4 hours skiing lessons per day, evenings full of fun, snow, mountains, sunshine, back to Cork fully fledged skiers!
Every second year, our school organises a week’s ski trip for pupils in 5th and 6th Class. The skiing is always great and the children learn so quickly it would take your breath away. The big adventure however, is travelling with friends and teachers rather than with your family. It is a big challenge for both sides to face, families and pupils, but the experience and sense of achievement is rewarding and in terms of personal development for the children, it is worth its weight in gold.
