February 8^th, 2025

Day 1 | Ski Has Started!

Even after a late arrival last night, the Haileybury Almaty students were up and raring to go on Day 1 on their ski trip to Guduari. We were sorted into our ski groups and off for some mountain adventures!

Day 1 | Afternoon Session

After a lovely buffet lunch, the group were back on the slopes for the afternoon session. We have some downtime planned at the hotel later so that we are fully recovered before a week of great skiing!

Day 2 | Ski Ready!

After a full night sleep, the HAL squad are ready to go for day 2 of skiing. The resort has had good snow but has the sun shining so it is ideal conditions! We have sent Mr Liversedge out with the 360 degree camera so we can get some more footage on the slopes (check out @twedex on Instagram!)

Day 2 | Post Lunch Ski

We are getting ready for our lunch break and will be joining for our afternoon session shortly. Stay tuned and we will get some pictures up from our apre activities as well!

Day 2 | Games Night

It’s not a ski trip without some fun evening activities. Some billiards and pool games to keep everyone entertained and get some healthy competition as well!

Day 3 | Sun is Out!

Another amazing day of skiing coming up! The sun is coming up and we are looking forward to another day of Georgian skiing.

Day 3 | Flying the Flag!

The Haileybury & Kazakhstan flag were on proud display in the mountains earlier today! We have had our lunch and are heading out for the afternoon session - more sunshine awaits!

Day 4 | Ready for Action!

Day 4 on the slopes coming up. The energy levels are still remarkably high from the group which is very impressive. We have another full day before a visit to Marco Polo hotel later for some bowling!

Day 4 | Trick Time!

We are back to the trick zone - plenty of brave and strong efforts out there. We are starting to get some admiration from the locals who are recognizing the group!

Day 4 | Evening Bowling

We got the team together to head to Marco Polo hotel and take part in some bowling games - the competition was close, winner still to be confirmed after video review!

Day 5 | Suns Out, Skis Out!

Another beautiful morning out here in Georgia - we have been so lucky with the weather! The students absolutely love this spot near the trick area!

Day 5 | Afternoon session

We think the pictures say enough here! Students will be heading to the Marco Polo hotel tonight for some activities - padel and swimming (not at the same time!) are the options!

Day 5 | Padel Time!

After another big day on the slopes, our apre ski activities included table tennis and padel games. Rumour has it the teachers won both!

Day 6 | Last Day!

Our final day on the slopes is here. We have another full day planned and then we will start the process of packing and getting ready for our trip to Tbilisi tomorrow. Time has flown by!
