The student pilot of the Cessna 172N aircraft (C-GYAS) was conducting solo touch-and-go landings on runway 25 in Thunder Bay, ON. During the "Go" portion following the fourth landing, the aircraft veered to left. The pilot was unable to regain control of the aircraft and it departed the paved portion of runway 25. Upon entering the snow-covered area beside runway 25, the nosewheel dug into some soft snow and broke off. Airport fire fighting personnel arrived at the scene immediately. The pilot was not injured. The aircraft sustained damage to the propeller, engine, nosewheel, and lower engine cowling area. The aircraft has been removed from service until repairs can be made.
