Yes, Fee has a lot of flats....my daughter has never cursed so much in her life :oops:
Avoid the long green at all costs, it is horrible. A real quad burner especially when the snow coverage is poor as it narrows. It will be interesting to hear some comments on the new Blue run. We are in LDA at Easter.

We used Intersport last Easter, there are several outlets around the resort. We booked online in advance to get the best deal. Have a look at either the one nearest a lift or your hotel. We left our shoes during the day and then dropped off the skis etc at the end of each day. Thre are various others such as Skimium, Skiset so have a look on the net. Enjoy

The U.S and Britain vary hugely Dyslexia testing is relatively common and may lead to Dyspraxic or Dyscalculic diagnosis. ASD and ADHD testing varies wildly from county to county..often a funding issue. Parents have to push very hard for any testing dependent on where they live.
I am very pleased that your son enjoys boarding....I am a bit of a purist and only ski. I use the arthritis in my thumbs as an excuse not to try it... :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

No offence taken. I am a special needs nurse in a previous life and have come across many seemingly "normal " children in my teaching assistant job who have unidentified needs. Mostly dyslexics who often suffer from dyspraxia too. They have just been labelled as poor spellers. I am also a trampoline and gymnastics coach and find that a lot of dyspraxic children can improve physically by a regular sports programme.
Back to my post...this lad has given me endless hours of laughter since year 7 ( he is now year 11) because he just does daft things. Ironically he is a very good rugby player....he is not going on the school ski trip next year tho :mrgreen:

Sorry, should have said...he has no special needs whatsoever. Just a plain old teenager. He also,thoroughly enjoyed the ski trip.

I am a teaching assistant in a secondary school. I happened to be going to the same resort two years ago as my school. I missed out on the the free staff trip but I got my own back. One of the students who is renowned for being totally disorganised and not particularly sporty required " special" lessons because he was so bad at skiing but what made me laugh the most was when one of the teachers told me that he had managed to put on 2 left ski boots.....and if that wasn't bad enough he didn't even realise until one other child couldn't find his. :mrgreen:
