As Pony Club is a youth organisation it is a requirement that all our instructors are CRB checked and also that they have attended a Pony Club accreditation course. The simplest method of ensuring that these criteria are fulfilled is to hold an accreditation course here on the island.
Some of our senior instructors have attended the Pony Club National Instructors Conference in Yorkshire which was taken by Yogi Breisner however all our other instructors were invited to attend this course on Monday 11th April. The course was taken by Pam Prickett who is a senior instructor and examiner from Oxenholme Branch of the Pony Club. Pam gave two demonstration lessons the first to three young members - Nicole, Courtney and Ellan who were working towards their 'D' test and the second to three older members Callum, Abigaile and Charlotte who are working towards their 'C' test.
There was a terrific turnout of instructors but unfortunately the temperature had dropped
10 degrees from the previous beautiful day and everyone was frozen! Many thanks to Pam and also everyone who turned up. We hope you found the evening helpful and educational.
