8. Points to consider
Electronic items are allowed but are not ensured on our insurance. Take at your own risk – phones, iPads, GoPros etc.
I will have a school phone, consider if yours is needed.
Do not take phones to the slope- you will fall over!
Be very sensible with the instructors. Skiing can be dangerous and you need to listen.
Unless injured or very sick, we will expect everyone to ski, every day. Your parents have paid a lot of money for you to learn to ski!

9. Final comments
Ensure we have a photocopy of the EHIC and passport. Deadline Friday 10th November 2017

We will send a message asking for the actual documents to be handed in 2 weeks before we depart. During this time they will remain in the school safe, so please do not worry about this!
