Leyton Sixth Form College had its first ever skiing expedition as students tackled the beautiful Italian Alps for a week of physical exertion and sensational skiing. Kumba Hutt, English teacher and organiser, said: “None of the students had ever skied before, but within the week all had skilfully mastered the sport and the slopes.” Chris Price, vice-principal, said: “The trip was a fantastic success. “The college provides many opportunities for student travel and this year our young people have also been on a visit to New York. “We aim to give students the widest possible opportunities to broaden their horizons.”
