Equestrian Team Update

The Churcher’s College Equestrian Team continues to go from strength to strength, with 20 members across the whole of the Senior School and some promising young riders honing their skills in the Junior School, too.

The Autumn Term brought competition success at the NSWA National Championships, with Clemmie winning the 1m10 Showjumping Plate and Harriet achieving a very respectable 5^th place in the Dressage Finals. Rosie equalled that placing on her pony, Cindy, in the Grass Regional Finals and Millie, Livi, Amelia and Phoebe have had several top-five placings in their showjumping competitions.
