In the event of bad weather or rain, the activity will be postponed to the next available date.
You can pay by bank transfer after the activity. This avoids teachers having to carry cash and ensures the charge reflects the actual number of participating children. Alternatively, pay by cash or card at the club office at the end of the activity.
We need to know the number and ages of the children so we can plan the activities, select suitable ponies and arrange the right number of instructors.
We will request this information one week beforehand.
To allow for last-minute changes, we will contact you during the two days before the visit to confirm or update the details.
Changes to participant numbers, particularly increases, must be reported at least two hours before the activity so we can organise the visit properly.
The increase must never exceed four children.
The format depends on the number of children, but all visits include:
- A brief introduction and explanation of the rules and activities.
- A guided tour of the different areas of the riding centre.
- Stroking and grooming a pony.
- Riding in the arena with basic balance and skill exercises.
The difficulty and content are adapted to the children’s ages.
All activities are led and supervised by qualified instructors.
WHAT TO WEAR
Participants must wear closed shoes, preferably made of sturdy material. Sandals, flip-flops and ballet flats are not suitable. Sports clothing or leggings are recommended for comfort.
DECORATIONS
You may decorate the space, provided you leave it as you found it.
PICNIC AND REFRESHMENTS
Tables and benches are available under a long canopy. A small building beside it has a fridge where you can store drinks before the activity. There are also vending machines for coffee, snacks and drinks. We do not provide food, cake or drinks.
These rules help activities run smoothly and protect the animals, participants and surroundings.
- Do not shout: you may frighten the ponies.
- Do not run near the ponies: you may frighten them.
- Never stand behind a pony: it may not see you and could kick or step on you.
- Do not throw stones, sticks or other objects that could hurt or frighten ponies or children.
- Ball games are prohibited throughout the riding centre.
- Do not enter the arenas or play with their equipment. These are working areas used for lessons.
- Do not climb on gates or fences: they are not designed for this and may break.
- Leave the space as you found it.
