"Driving to the alps "

hi,
Thinking of driving to the alps for some ski-ing action this Easter, just wondering if anyone had done it?
Taking Thursday and Tuesday off work, so will 6 days, with, say a day either end ot get there and back fo four days' ski-ing...is this realistic? We're going over on the Eurostar from Ashford with a car full of friends.
We've all driven in france before, so that's isn't really a problem, more the timing and route that we're not sure on.
Any advice appreciated!
