The SnowDome Ski School teaches children from 4 – 7 years in Kinder Lessons. Now with a dedicated ‘Kinder Team’ of instructors, all sessions and lessons last 45 minutes and take place early morning, every Saturday and Sunday and during the school holidays. It is highly recommended that all children attend the Kinder Fun Session before progressing to the more formal ‘lesson approach’ of Kinder 1, 2 & 3 lessons. It is normal and advisable for young children to repeat sessions and lessons in order to reach the ability to progress to the next level. Each child is issued with an achievement card enabling parents to keep a track on their childs progression. Please refer to the Parents Guide which is available to download, see top right hand side of this page.
