Mill Strand IPS Ski Trip - Pamporovo
|
The ski trips to Pamporovo in January/February provide exciting opportunities for Year 6 and Year 7 pupils to experience a new sport, language and country under the supervision of arguably the best ski instructors in Europe.
The safe slopes, careful instruction and child friendly accommodation together with relatively low prices make Pamporovo the destination of choice of many primary and post primary schools from Northern Ireland. Prior to the introduction of this trip, members of the school community visited Pamporovo in March 2005 courtesy of Balkantours, Belfast to see the facilities on offer at first hand. A further inspection visit was undertaken in March 2011. Trips are now organised through Travel Solutions, Belfast Ltd. To view movies of previous trips, click on the link below... 
High Demand for the 2022 Ski TripThe 2022 ski trip has already been confirmed with 24 children, 3 staff and a supporting adult due to travel to Pamporovo next year.
The school's FaceBook page will keep parents up to date with all the latest news, photographs and even daily videos during the trip. In recent years, it has proved to be a huge hit reaching almost 5000 people worldwide and allowing relatives and friends to share the adventure. From the web cams below, you will see skiing conditions in Pamporovo during the trip and we are looking forward to perfect skiing conditions d in the resort especially on the days when the sun comes out, as it often does in Pamps. In 2019 we had almost 3m of snowfall in just over two days transforming the resort almost overnight. Ski conditions were perfect throughout the week... if anything we had too much snow!!! The following links are to weather forecasts and various web cams in the resort:
Three web cameras placed strategically at the top of the mountain on the four man chairlift, the 'Lake Area' at the bottom of the 'Tourist Slope' and at the Middle Station.
