At the beginning of the new school year Charly's class were able to take part in 2 nights and 3 full days at the Alpenschule in Westendorf which is a village about 30mins from Kitzbühel.
They headed up there by train with their teacher and 3 parents including me. I was assigned a room with 4 girls and Martina (teacher) had the rest of the girls. The two Dads that accompanied us got the boys. We were in different farm houses up high on the mountain and the views were amazing.
They all had a great 3 days although some kids (albeit aided by their parents) couldn't handle staying away from home. Amazing for me as in NZ we stayed at friend's places early on and here in Austria it is not as common. They are all over 9 years of age but it was still a struggle for a few of them.
They learned about sheep shearing, making cheese and yoghurt, herb salts and herb bread, life on a mountain farm now and previously and heaps of other cool things. Here are a few photos to look at.
As you can see lots of laughs and fun.
