MPS students hit the snow and shred

ON Friday July 26 the grade six students from Mansfield Primary School headed up to Buller to begin their four-week Snowsports program.

It was a bluebird day with not a cloud in the sky and plenty of snow to shred on!

50 students attended ski and snowboard lessons across eight groups, completing two 1.5-hour sessions.

Our school also provides a ski or snowboard program from years 4-6.

We have the fours complete a program at Stirling over the course of four weeks as well as the fives at Buller.

We had instructors from all over the world, including Germany, Sweden and the UK.

We’re looking forward to the next three weeks of Snowsports as the snow continues to dump down and the weather continues to be sunny.
