THE ROYAL VISIT. In February everyone at Hayfield
enjoyed the wonderful surprise of a visit from Her Royal Highness the
Duchess of Rothesay. |
Following their usual practice, the instructors took charge of the show and with helpers smartly dressed, the children were keen to show off their riding skills which was much to the delight of the teachers, their classmates watching and the press and TV camera's. Smiles all round and cheer from the children watching as Camilla herself led the clapped showing her absolute appreciation and joy. With the display of riding finished Camilla presented all of the riders with the certificates which recognised that they had achieved their first skills level. Most appreciated was the way that Camilla spent absolutely ages chatting away to all of the other children, parents and teachers interested to hear how the riding and pony care courses had helped so many children in all that they do.
SUMMER CAMPS AND JUNIOR STABLE MANAGEMENT COURSES.
The best camps are always when someone
gets their friends together and ask their instructress if she would like to
run a camp just for them. However, if you don't have enough numbers we can make
them up. Sadie's camp is already up and running and there are still a few weeks
free to book camps for older children. Younger children can enjoy coming daily
to stable management course having fun with ponies.
Further details from the office or e-mail us at info@Hayfield.com
HORSE LEASING SELLING BUYING.
Riders with enough experience are
now able to lease loan a horse and there are several options to choose from.
However, you do need to be riding at adult stage 5 or Yellow ribbon plus standard
to lease.
Details from the office or by e-mail.
