Event Information

 

FUN DAYS

Fun Days usually consist of a small amount of fun stable management, perhaps a best dressed tail competition or something similar and 2 rides, one in the morning and one afternoon which will include games or a treasure hunt and culminate with the awarding of a Coach House Stables rosette.

These days start promptly at 10.30am.   Please be here by 10.15am.

Clothing – please wear suitable clothes for the ever changing weather!  If it is likely to be wet, a change of clothes and Wellington boots are advisable.  Please bring a packed lunch and extra drinks and snacks to have at break time.

The day ends at 3.30pm.

BEGINNERS MORNINGS

The morning consists of an introduction to ponies, including how to handle them safely and a ride which will be mostly in the arena and may finish with a ‘walk out’.

All ponies and riders have their own dedicated leader/helper and the instructor.  These mornings are limited to 6 clients per session.

The morning starts at 10am and finishes at 12.30am.

Please wear appropriate clothing for the weather.  We ride outdoors.  Also, please ensure you bring a drink.

OWN A PONY DAY

Is similar to the Fun Day, but has more emphasis on handling and safe management as well as riding.

STABLE MANAGEMENT DAYS

Clients are trained towards their ABRS Progressive Rider Tests.  This includes safe handling in grooming and tacking up.

There is no riding on these days.

We also do Brownie and Guide badges on these days.

The training takes place in the mornings and the tests are taken in the afternoons with an independent Tester.  All clients who successfully pass will receive a certificate.

Once again, appropriate clothing needs to be worn along with stout shoes.  Clients need to bring a packed lunch and extra drinks and snacks.
