CLASSIC CHILD CARE

Esprit Snow Clubs

Designed for children aged three to eight years, Esprit Snow Clubs are the half-day complement to our Sprite and Spritelets ski classes, and run six half-days per week, led by
our Esprit Snow Rangers.

Fun for Children

Snow Club sessions are tailored to suit the children’s ages and include a myriad of fun and
exciting activities that we know children really enjoy. Depending on children’s age, the weather and local resort facilities, these may include for example:

Fun ‘Wacky Whizzing’ on sledges or ‘bum-boards’

‘Hunt the Ranger’ adventures - generally ‘gungeing’ the poor Ranger when they find him!

Igloo-building, snow-art & snow-sculptures

Exploration missions around the resort on foot and by ski-lift

All the latest Esprit action-songs, chants & games

Indoor & outdoor treasure hunts

Creative arts & crafts and story-telling for the quieter sessions

All this with the enthusiastic support and close supervision of our Snow Ranger team, with our stringent care ratios of 1:8.

The crowning event of the week, to which all parents are also invited, is the Esprit Medal Ceremony, where all children in Esprit ski lessons and/or Snow Club receive their ski medals and Snow Club certificates. This is also the chance for the children to show their parents what they have been up to all week, complete with songs and mini-sketches, and everything they have made themselves. A guaranteed photo opportunity and the ideal way to end the week on a high!

Details for Parents

The Snow Club includes lunch and the appropriate take-to and pick-up services for all Esprit Ski Classes. Snow Clubs run in every resort, sometimes in several locations, depending on the numbers of children involved. Where we have more than one Snow Club location in a resort, we allocate children of similar ages together, so that their fun and activities can be more tailored to suit their ages and abilities. Therefore your child may not necessarily attend the Snow Club in the property in which you are staying, and you will be informed of their allocated Snow Club on your arrival.

Other than in Scheffau, Snow Club normally runs in the mornings for 3-4 year olds in Spritelets, and after lunch for older children (usually the afternoon only for all Snow Club children on the last day). Timings can of course occasionally vary due to resort conditions.

At the end of the day, chalet and Chalet Hotel guests’ children will be escorted back to their respective ‘homes’, where high tea will be supervised by our staff on five nights per week, so parents need only take control of their offspring at 6pm, except on our chalet staff’s day off, when children will be returned to their chalet or Chalet Hotel at 5pm.

Parents in Hotels Alpin or Mühle collect children from Snow Club at 5pm and supervise their evening meal in your ‘home’ hotel.

To avoid disappointment on arrival, please secure your Snow Club places at the time of booking and show them on your booking form.
