Sabeena in Switzerland-Day 4

I am Jealous, Sabeena and her classmates had brownies today.  I still have 2 weeks left of my no dessert regime.  Getting excited about that small slice of birthday cake. 

Here is the letter from Sabeena's Teacher.

Dear All,

Another sunny day in paradise!! The jet lag has passed and this morning many of the children had to be woken up for breakfast! Everyone is busy queuing up for the Sharjah School Bank, before getting ready for the slopes.

Yesterday, we set off fully equiped and everyone headed up to the top of the mountain. The scenery is magnificent in every direction and the children have noticed how clear the air is.

All of the groups made excellent progress and two groups progressed onto the more advanced runs. There was a great sense of achievement, as later in the day they also managed to ski to the village. This involves a beautiful red run through the trees and then following a narrow track which winds its way through the trees to the bottom of the mountain.

We skied hard all day and finally returned to the chalet for bread, jam and brownies.

Following this the children were divided into three groups for French lessons. There were peals of laughter during the lessons and it was agreed that the lessons were a complete Hit!!

After a hearty dinner we wrapped up warmly again and headed out for a night hike through the woods. The sky was clear and comments were made about how clear the stars were.

Bedtime was welcomed and everyone slept well - especially the staff!!

So it is off to the slopes again and a busy day ahead.

Best wishes

The Morgins Gang.
