Ski hire prices

Hi we're going skiing on 5th march for one week and wondered if it would be cheaper to pay for ski and boot hire as well as lift passes at resort or is it best to pre book over here?? We are also taking our 5 year old son who has never skied before - is it suitable for him????

We have used the ski school we booked with two years ago and the owner was very helpful, unlike the other companies & hotels we tried to get information from.

If you need any other info let me know.
