We meet at the ESF office in Grands Montets (66 Chem. de la Glacière, 74400 Chamonix-Mont-Blanc).
Introduce your child, aged 4 to 5, to the Piou-Piou, Ourson and Flocons levels in Argentière (Grands Montets).
With guidance from certified instructors, your little one will develop confidence and refine their skills, practicing balance and controlled sliding techniques in a fun and safe environment tailored to their progress.
By the end of the week, they’ll have taken significant strides in their skiing journey. Parents are invited to join us on Friday for a special medal ceremony, celebrating their child’s growth and accomplishments on the snow.
We meet at our office in Les Grands Montets, 15 minutes before the start of the lesson.
For children under 5: a free ski pass is available, which must be collected from the ski lifts in exchange for proof of age.
If you stay in Les Grands-Montets, your kid doesn't need a ski pass at the beginning of the week and will later need a Chosalets ski pass. The instructor will let you know when to get it. If you're staying at Le Tour, you'll need a Vormaine ski pass.

You must arrive at the first lesson with your equipment (skis and poles or snowboard, and boots). If you do not have your own equipment, make sure to allow enough time to collect it from the rental shop so as not to delay the start of the lesson. Some shops even offer the option of collecting equipment the day before your first day of hire.
Wearing a helmet is compulsory for children in some countries, but it is strongly recommended for everyone, regardless of age.
Unless otherwise stated, you must have your ski pass with you for the first lesson. You can usually buy one at the ski lift office or online. Discounted rates may be available for children or beginners, so check with your ski school to find out which pass is most suitable.
Generally, it is advisable to book lessons as early as possible. This is especially important during school holidays, such as Christmas and February, when lessons can fill up quickly.
