'Own a Pony' Day!
|
|
We usually hold one pony day every half term and two or three pony days over the Easter and summer holidays. In the winter, we do half day pony days due to the weather and temperature that time of year but in the warmer months we hold full day pony days.
NEXT PONY DAYS WILL BE:
Full-day pony days will resume from Easter Half term 2020 - dates to be announced nearer the time.
£50 per child
The pony days are Suitable for kids aged 5-12 who are confident staying for the day without parents. Drop off is at 10am and pick up is at 3pm but we welcome parents to stay and watch the children go out on their morning ride shortly after 10am after they have chosen the ponies they want to ride. Previous riding experience is helpful, but not necessary. Children will need to come dressed appropriately for riding and a day full of activities i.e. long trousers as opposed to shorts or skirts. Closed shoes such as boots or wellies as opposed to sandals or school shoes are required, bearing in mind they may get a bit mucky during the day! Children will need to come with a packed lunch including plenty to drink.

10:00 - choosing ponies & 45 minute ride
10:45 - Mucking out
10:15 - Making hay nets
11:30 - Grooming the ponies
12:00 - Feeding the horses and ponies
