Our equestrian riders have had a very successful month, with multiple events attended and trophies taken away.

Events attended included Bicton Arena NSEA Competition where Daisy T competed on her 16.1hh horse, Tipperary Wedding Day, and Kings Sedgemoor Eventers Challenge where students walked away with three top ten placings at the Kings Sedgemoor Eventers Challenge including an incredible first place and qualification for the championship in May! During the same weekend, 10-year-old Violet competed at the British Showjumping competition in Chard where she jumped her first 1m British Showjumping round.

The most recent event was a short drive away in Pontispool where riders competed in the NSEA SJ Competition in which student Zoe qualified for the NSEA National Schools Championship in October following her success of placing 3rd in the 1m and 2nd in the 1.1m!

Finally, we welcomed Bradley Moore-Taylor as our new Head of Equestrian. Bradley has lots of ideas of how to grow the provision at the school and we’re delighted to have him on board.
