EYFS

Class 1 had a fabulous time at the Standing Stones Stables in Trink St.Ives.

We met Rolo, Buddy and James the gentle and patient ponies.

I liked riding the horse, the brown one – Jasper

We took turns in grooming the horses and learning all about how to care for them. We decorated James the unicorn with glitter, sparkles, gems and gave his mane and tail a good groom.

We had a go at waxing some saddles, colouring some unicorn pictures and filling up the nets with hay for the horses.

It was fun. I loved it. I decorated the horse with glitter and I rided on a horse, the white one, it felt like my dog because I have a dog called Tessa – Billy

After making a wish by the largest standing stone in Cornwall, we had a run around in the field then made our way over to the paddock. There we took it in turns to ride Rolo and Buddy. We also got to lead James around the paddock.

We had a lovely time and would like to say thank you to Natalie and all her wonderful staff for making our visit so much fun.

I liked going on the horses. My favourite one was the white one. I liked going on Buddy – Hazel
