Pony Stars

ADVENTURE, FUN AND FRIENDSHIP STARTS WITH PONIES

ponystars

In partnership with the BHS, Pony Stars is our Junior Challenge Awards helping children to discover, develop and nurture their love for ponies and the outdoors. With over 100 topics for children to explore, Pony Stars will ignite a passion for ponies, build knowledge and cement friendships that will last a lifetime.

As part of the programme, each child will receive their very own My Challenge Book to log their achievements. As they progress through the various challenges there will be stickers, badges and rosettes up for grabs too to keep them engaged and motivated.

With four key groups, Pony Stars enables long-term progression with a range of activities that will develop knowledge, skills and self-confidence. In each group your child will work through sets of challenges that make up topics within set themes.

Books available in the office for £16.99 each.

Pony Days

ponybarn

These are immensely popular activities in school holidays! They do however require the child to already be riding in one of our group lessons.

The children are with us from 10am to 3.30pm and their time will include at least 2 hours riding. During the rest of the day the children will learn stable management skills and generally have a fun-packed day. These are invaluable days for children to gain confidence around the ponies, learn about looking after them, and make new friends!

48 hours cancellation policy applies. Please remember to bring a packed lunch and dress appropriately for the weather

Junior Dressage/Jumping Days
