Saturdays are devoted to teaching juniors basic horse care which involves pooh-picking the pasture, cleaning out stables, grooming, filling hay-nets and cleaning their tack. In return for this work they have the opportunity to have a bit of fun riding, or if they wish, to learn drive. These young people are the future of the group.
Alex, Becky, Claudia, and Jenny are four enthusiastic girls who came today and rode Felix & Maggie. The horses love this change from their routine - it adds interest to their week.
The girls start off in the dressage arena practising what they've learnt at outside riding schools and then take the horses out for a ride in the woods. Good fun for all!
