The Senior School Equestrian Team has had a great year so far, with around 20 members ranging from First Year to Upper Sixth. Recently, the team has taken part in several key competitions.

Freya and Jocelyn

On 3 November several riders participated in a Hunter Trial at Littleton Manor in Surrey. Freya, a First Year pupil, claimed first place in the 50cm category, while Chip, a Second Year, dominated the 80cm event, finishing in first place as well. Third Year Hugo placed fourth in the 70cm competition, and Jocelyn, also in the Third Year, secured a third-place finish in the 80cm event. Fantastic results both individually and as a team.

In addition to the Hunter Trial success, Rosie, a Fourth Year, took on the challenge of the 70-75 cm show jumping competition at Coombelands on 13 October. Competing in a highly competitive class, Rosie finished in 11th place in a field of demanding fast-paced rounds.

Well done to all the competitors for their hard work, resilience and dedication.
