A summer memory

Last summer some of the boarders headed out to Bradford-on-Avon and enjoyed a bit of sight-seeing and a yummy cream tea.
We are hoping to do more of the same this year...

Mrs Dudley-Ward (i/c Marketing) popped round to say Hi to our boarders, especially those international boarders.  We have 15 boarders in School House this year.  A real international mix with girls from Hong Kong, China, Germany, Italy, Russia, Lativia and Kenya, as well as some home grown girls!

An update from Claudia

Claudia has been busy over the summer - here is her latest update:

On Sunday 6th July Dessie and I went to Barbury international horse trials to represent my pony club in the team showjumping. The course was huge with a lot of distractions around the arena. Unfortunately Dessie had some faults but we were still pleased as the course was so challenging.

On Wednesday 16th July I took Brook to the Badminton Grassroots dressage championships. With Brook having been on for almost 4 weeks before the competition with an injury to make it to the day was an achievement in itself. Having qualified in March we had trained for this day ever since. Brook produced a really beautiful test that left us on a final score of 71.5% and put us into the lead. Unfortunately the last 3 went a little bit better so we finished in 4th place only 1.2% off the winning score.

Finally on Wednesday 13th August Brook was out again at Beaufort hunt supporters club show. Here Brook did a lovely dressage test to score 74.8% finishing in Fourth place. We then competed in the veteran class for horses over 15 years old and it is judged on how they move. In a very big class with very tough completion we managed to win it and qualify for the veteran horse and pony south west championships.
