School holidays are nearly ending with one week to go…
By now the pantry's been opened 47 times, someone's claimed they're "starving" five minutes after breakfast, and the couch has permanent body-shaped dents. Sound familiar?
Swap the snack requests for snowballs, the screens for ski runs, and the living room for fresh mountain air at Mt Dobson. We can't promise the kids won't still ask for hot chips (they definitely will ), but we can promise plenty of laughs, unforgettable memories, and a whole lot more fun than another day at home.
Whether you're skiing, snowboarding or simply enjoying a hot chocolate while taking in the mountain views, Mt Dobson is the perfect family day out these school holidays.
Also keep an eye out on Dobson Daisy, you can get a lolly when you find our cute cow!
We hope to see you on the mountain on your last week of school holidays and making sure you come back to school with a story!
