2023 Snow Sports Programme
Wānaka Primary School is not taking enrolments, in Term 3, for children who intend to engage in any snowsport programmes during the school week.
Families will need to make their own arrangements for their children’s schooling. The correspondence school, Te Kura, is able to provide online learning whilst students are residing in Wānaka. You can also approach your current school and seek online learning from them for Term 3.
Wānaka Primary School is not an option for children who are in snowsports programmes during the school week as this does not constitute regular attendance.

This season Cardrona are offering ALL levels of skiing and snowboarding lessons at Cardrona. Treble Cone are only offering intermediate and advanced snowboard lessons as an option and all levels of skiing. Please see the information below.
All children enrolled in the 5 day programme MUST be transported by a caregiver up and down the ski field and get them to their lessons on time. It is also the caregivers responsibility to monitor their children at lunch time. The 1 day programme will have transport and supervision organised by the school.
