Frequently asked questions about the ESi courses
Snow Garden
Discover everything that will make your child's ski lesson a success!
The criteria for obtaining each level and the skills to be acquired can be found on our Medals page.
Feel free to ask your ski school about this.
Children acquire the technique of skiing without even realizing it, thanks to specially designed games, in the snow garden or on suitable slopes.
Your child needs a ski outfit, a helmet, ski equipment (no poles), goggles and/or sunglasses, sunscreen, tissues, and a small snack in their pocket.
If the snow garden is located in the resort, there is no need for a ski pass.
Once the child is independent on skis, the instructor will let you know the day before they leave the snow garden so that you can buy a ski pass for the rest of the week.
Don’t panic, the instructor is a professional and is used to these situations; therefore, you need to:
* leave your child in the instructor’s hands at the meeting point and avoid staying with them for too long ;
* avoid being seen by the child; ;
* avoid contact before the end of the course.
