 > From the Ourson obtained, the meeting point is situated front of our main esf office, on the snow front of Tignes Val Claret, close to the "Tufs" chairlift (The meeting point will be indicated during your booking).
where IS the meeting point?
Depending on the age and level of your child, and your stay in Tignes, we will propose you a meeting point, at the kindergarden or front of our esf main office located on the snow front of Tignes Val Claret (near the chairlift "Tufs"). > The meeting place will be indicated during your booking.
Does my child need to bring a snack?
If you can put a cereal bar in the pocket it will help if your child gets hungry.
Does my child need a ski pass?
Up to 1st Etoile ski and snowboard level, a ski pass is not required. In private lessons, the instructor may ask you during the week, depending on the progress of the course participants. (Our Jardin des Neiges is equipped with its own ski lifts, and Tignes offers many free ski lifts!)
Will my child earn a medal?
In private lessons, medals are not included in the course fee. The instructor will evaluate the child during classes, and you can buy the medal in our esf offices.
Do I need to equip my child with protections?
For children and adults, wearing an helmet is highly recommended for skiing or snowboarding!
Are instructors qualified to teach young children?
Of course, each instructor trains for many years before they can teach skiing. One of the initial tests they must pass involves teaching skiing to young children. Our instructors are therefore fully qualified and certified to work with young children.
