Pony Club Rally Day Sun 29th May 2011

This Sunday saw the start of the new format of Pony Club with the kids divided into groups. The head instructor Dee has sorted a lesson plan and the kids are working towards Pony Club accreditation (the New Zealand version).  I am sorry that I didnt get pics of everyone - Brianna having a spill off her horse which resulted in a broken arm, ceased by picture taking. Anyhow heres what I got.   Regards  Lou

One Day Event Sun 15th May 2011

This afternoon saw Norfolk Island Pony Club have a one day event. There has been much excitement for weeks for the junious riders and plenty of practise going on. Pony Club is indebted to Neil McKenzie-Hall who is back for the Country Music Festival, who kindly agreed to judge the events again this year.

The afternoon started with a dressage test, followed by a jumping points test and then a cross country event. Despite the icy wind; it was great to see a crowd of family & friends there to cheer the riders on.

These are some pics I took of the riders who participated in the dressage event. I think I got everyone although one shot was too blurry so sorry if that was you and I missed you.
Well done to all who rode - you were great to watch.

Thankyou to Neil, Kim & Kev for the scoring and thanks to all who brought things for afternoon tea. What a great spread
