Led by 4 Regents teachers, 33 Regents students from Years 6 to 12 landed in Tokyo, Japan on the first Saturday of the half-term break before travelling by coach to the snowy Naeba Ski Resort, located on the eastern slope of Mount Takenoko.

The students and staff members spent 6 nights in total lodging at iCamp Japan; who helped to organise expert ski and snowboard instructors for our keen students. The students were split to groups based on their various abilities and experiences in the winter sports: there were 2 absolute beginner ski groups, 1 intermediate ski group, 2 advanced ski groups and 1 beginner snowboard group.

Aside from hours on end of exciting skiing and snowboarding, the students also got the chance to enjoy authentic Japanese culinary experiences, were amazed by the brilliant fireworks show over the snowy mountains and the highlight for some was in fact, night skiing. So much so, that one of the students, William, did not even hesitate to say “this was the best day of my life!”

In keeping up with our students’ daily activities, one of our parents cheerfully commented: “We are blessed we could provide this trip for our kids. Thanks, Regents, for all your efforts and support to make this happen!”

At Regents, we are always looking to provide our students with unique and special opportunities; so they can experience something new or build upon skills they already possess, so that they can achieve more than they thought possible.
