Yes all lessons are taught in English.
Yes, for the main weeks we have our own British ski instructors, but also use British speaking Italian instructors from the Scuola Sci Champoluc, who we work closely with. Kids ski school is organised by us and we allocate instructors and manage class sizes.
If you have a child younger than 4, then please feel to contact the team on office@ski-champoluc.com who will be able to advise what we can offer.
Most children say this before joining our ski school, but rarely go through with it as they are having so much fun with their friends! If you are certain this is all you want to book/pay for then we would recommend them being booked into Italian Ski School.

Our company specialises in tailor-made holidays for you in Champoluc, if you decide to make your own hotel arrangements then we are not able to offer our other services individually.
Unfortunately not, like all alpine resorts we are at the mercy of the weather, but there is significant snowmaking facilities across the 100km ski area so we are more snow assured than most! Champoluc village is at 1600m and most of the skiing is above 2000m.
There are a range of activities available in Champoluc from snowshoeing and sledging to the adventure park. If you fancy something more relaxing there is a spa in the town.
Yes. We have some lovely English-speaking staff who offer babysitting services for £20 per hour.

No, but if there is somewhere you really want to eat it can be advisable. These can be booked through our resort office.
