Ski Nordique

The class will have four more ski outings this month!

Boarding the bus with a copine







Naturally, they had a huge gouter afterwards, which I guess was just assumed, because everyone had brought stuff even though we did not get a note sent home stating this or anything.....luckily I had brought some snacks.


Sagey was exceptionally good at the downhills and was the one debutante who did not fall











Sagey's group had a wonderful instructor, Celine







Ski de Font Classique



They are sorted into groups, some of the 4/5 year olds in Villard de Lans have been cross-country skiing for years and are veritable experts.




The Warm-up




Skis are on!







La Grande Section went on a field trip to Bois Barbu for ski de font. Sagey was game, as usual. We went with over 50 kids, got everyone's boots and skis on, counted mittens, hats, etc.
