School Group lift tickets can only be purchased in combination with lessons, and can be packaged with:

Lesson Detail:

2 Hour Lesson

A daily lesson program structured to give your students the confidence they need to safely enjoy their time on the mountain.
Our team of qualified instructors will assess the terrain and lifts suitable for each group of students and provide recommendations on where the school group can safely continue to enjoy their skiing and snowboarding once the daily lesson is complete.
Perisher will allocate and confirm lesson times once final ski and snowboard numbers have been received and are based on availability and operational considerations.

Complimentary First Timer Lesson

A 2-hour first timer lesson, including lift access, is offered complimentary on the afternoon prior to the first day of all 5-day packages. Pre-bookings are essential.
This is a great introduction to learn the basics and is not offered to intermediate and advanced students.
First time skiers or snowboarders will have priority access to the earliest available lesson times. Lessons may change to a later time from the second day onwards.

Lessons are assigned at a target ratio of approximately 1 instructor for every 10 students, with a minimum of 8 students of the same ability and discipline per instructor.
If your School Group has smaller numbers of students at different ability levels or disciplines, alternative solutions are listed under Booking Conditions 3.1
Should any member of the School Group require special assistance, contact must be made with the Groups Team at the time of booking to make appropriate arrangements.

Snowsports Rental

Enjoy the convenience of hiring your equipment from Perisher Snowsports Rental, located at Bullocks Flat, with the added benefit of storing your equipment overnight at Bullocks Flat Skitube terminal.

There is an extensive range of modern equipment and clothing available.

Ski and snowboard rental packages include:

Skiers receive the latest skis, boots and poles; Snowboarders receive wrist guards, boots and a snowboard.
FREE helmet rental (wearing helmets is mandatory for students participating in lessons).
Clothing rental can be added to ski and snowboard packages.

Free Teacher Packages

School Groups receive one free package for a teacher or adult supervisor for every 10 paying students. The lift, lesson and rental package inclusions will mirror whatever has been purchased for the students.

Teachers and adult supervisors are welcome to participate in group lessons but will not count towards the student number in determining class size and instructor allocations.

Lunch

Lunches are regularly available from the Blue Cow Bistro which is located on the mountain and offers a selection of healthy meals that accommodate a variety of dietary requirements.

School Groups will receive one free of charge meal for a teacher or adult supervisor for every 10 paying students.
