Each winter, students have the opportunity to participate in supervised snow sports, either as part of the College’s Go to the Snow Program (GTTS) or the Bright College Snowsports Team (BSCT). The programs involve students travelling to either Mt Hotham or Falls Creek to participate in formal ski or snowboard lessons and supervised recreational skiing or snowboarding with a teacher or volunteer. Parent involvement in these programs is encouraged and vital to their success.

Go to The Snow 5 Day Program
Students in Year 3 through to Year 10 are eligible to apply for the Go To The Snow program. As part of the program, students travel by bus to and from Falls Creek Ski resort once a week for five weeks during Term 3. Students recreationally ski or snowboard with a teacher or endorsed volunteer for half of the day and participate in a ski or snowboard lesson for the other half of the day.
Bright College Snowsports Team (BCST) 10 Day Program
Formed in 1999, the Bright College Snowsports Team has grown from its early beginnings of just 12 members to a thriving team of over 100 students, support staff and volunteer parents.
