Teacher Testimonials

Hi there,

I just want to let you know that the kids at st. monica school had an awesome time on our ski day yesterday. Not one complaint, only positive statements like
I wish we could come back this year
I got my star
I never thought I’d like skiing this much

There was not a negative word from anybody all day. The staff working with the students were fantastic and the station progression which the kids go through is second to none. I was never concerned with anyone’s safety all day. Great job, see you next season!

Please pass along my thanks and congratulations to the Pakenham staff for a wonderful ski day today. The staff were all friendly and helpful and several parents remarked to me about how quickly the kids were able to get their rental gear and then get on the hill.
We truly had a great day!
Thank-you!

Hi,

I just wanted to let you know that we had a perfect day on Friday! All the children had so much fun. The staff at the hill was, as always, tremendous.
Thier patience and persistence with some of the students made the difference between them staying in the chalet most of the day and getting out skiing and finally seeing success.

Thanks again, see you next year!

Hello!
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and the staff at Mount Pakenham for making our Winter Carnival day a huge success! The kids had a blast and look forward to another trip sometime in the future. I cannot thank the rental shop assistants enough for their great organization. Our students filed in and out efficiently! Your patience with ski, boot and board adjustments are greatly appreciated.
The ski instructors deserve a huge round of applause, as well! As I stood at the bottom of the hill, I had noticed one of our students becoming quite frustrated with herself to the point where she was in tears. The instructor demonstrated compassion and reassured our girl that she is capable of achieving her star with more practice. The instructor provided plenty of encouragement which is exactly what our student needs. Thank you.
Last, but not least, I would like to thank you Ashley for being so patient with me while organizing the ski day. Your speedy response to my numerous questions is greatly appreciated.
Thanks again for a wonderful day!
Karen Grace,
St. Joseph’s School, Arnprior
