We are delighted to be able to offer holiday activities through the summer, as advised by the riding school association, after initially fearing that we might not be able to. We have made some huge changes from how we used to run our holiday activities and can now offer a much more private and learning-focused activity.
Each activity will be limited to 6 riders for the whole day. The children who attend will have an instructor dedicated to teaching the small group how to care for their pony and new stable management skills. The day will mainly focus on learning and taking part in either dressage or jumping. The children will learn how to prepare their horse for a competition including plaiting up and bathing*. They will also learn a dressage test or show-jumping course, working through the various movements involved. The ridden part of their day will be a lesson in perfecting their dressage test or jumping course. They will complete the day by taking part in a fun competition. Each rider will receive a rosette and the dressage riders will receive a dressage sheet with positive and constructive feedback. A hot lunch, snacks and drinks for the day are included in the cost.
By limiting the numbers, we are excited to be able to offer a much more personalised day. This experience is bound to be the highlight of their summer holidays!
