Grade 12 scholar graduating at the end of 2024.

I rode for 6 years with a lesson once a week. I learnt the riding disciplines of show jumping, cross country, and flatwork. Learnt how to groom, tack up/down and wash the horses and other basic horse care. Can do basic plaits.
Learnt all the gaits (through to gallop).

I volunteered for 6 months at SARDA (South African Riding for the Disabled). There we either led the horses or walked next to the rider helping them and communicating with them to help them better understand the instructor.

I have ridden for 5-6 years consecutively when I was younger, however, I since ride on holidays etc. I rode flat work and show-jumping and cross-country.

I mainly rode riding school horses in this time period, however I was sometimes given "greener" horses or horses who the riding school needed help training to break their habits.
