Students will take part in EAL (Equine Assisted Learning) hands on Horsemanship activites with our wonderful herd of Mini Shetlands and EAL ponies.
Activities are engaging and exciting mainly practical skills together with outdoor pursuits for their health and well-being.
Students will develop over the weeks communication skills and learning about working as a team with other students when handling the ponies.
The days will include theory/practical time with worksheets (optional) to include activities such as problem solving and encouraging creative tasks.
By the student being involved in the day to day care of an animal they will by measured use of feedstuffs, providing food and water and reading instructional posters fulfill many of the HEd requirements.
The full course will consist of five weeks of horsemanship and mounted time and the sixth week will be assessment evaluation and certification.
All course students will have the option to ride on the assessment & certification day if they are confident enough to do so but can choose not to if they are not as yet ready.
If parents are unable to commit to the course there is an option to attend on a day basis for the five dates but will not be eligible for the assessment or certification day.
Facilitators are DBS certificated and all hold Working with Children Safeguarding Certificates.
