THREDBO SNOW DAY — WHAT A DAY!! 🏔️❄️

The much-anticipated Thredbo snow day was everything we hoped for and more!

🎢 Alpine Coaster
❄️ Snow play
⛄ Snowmen & snow slides
🏊‍♀️ Heated pools & waterslide

Due to high winds, the gondola wasn’t running, but that certainly didn’t dampen our spirits! Instead, we had the opportunity to ride the Alpine Coaster — and the kids absolutely LOVED it!

Thredbo blocked off a special section of snow just for our school, where students created snow slides, built snowmen, threw plenty of snowballs and simply soaked up the amazing snow atmosphere!

We finished an epic day with some well-earned fun at the heated pools, including plenty of trips down the waterslide!

We can’t believe we’ve already reached our final day in Canberra! What an incredible week it has been - but we’re not done yet! One more jam-packed day of adventures and memories ahead! 🚌✨
