Pony Playgroup (Ages 3 and 4 year olds)
Every Thursday, from 10:00am to 11:00am. One hour of pony cuddling! We learn how to approach the ponies, how to behave around them, how to lead them, tie them up and groom them and towards the end of the hour one pony will take children around the field for little rides.

Cost of Course: £25 per session or £125 for a 6 week course

Introduction to Ponies Course: (6 year olds and up)
Saturdays from 10:45pm to 12:15pm
During this course your child will have the opportunity to handle the ponies, learn about caring for them and grooming them, tacking them up and the basics of riding. We go out for a walk and depending on how the children are doing we sometimes go in the school for a little trot. Emphasis, however, is on the handling and caring of the ponies. Children will be ready to join a group lesson after they attend this course.

Cost: £30 for one session or £150 for the 6 week course

Cost of Course: £30 per session or £150 for six weeks course.
