About the class
Love ponies? Come and join Pony Club Academy!
Designed for young horse and pony enthusiasts, this fun online club explores the knowledge and skills that go into caring for, understanding and enjoying life with horses and ponies.
Across six interactive small-group lessons, learners will discover how to recognise different breeds and colours of ponies, understand their behaviour, care for them properly, choose and use everyday equipment, plan a pony's daily routine and tackle realistic equestrian challenges.
You don't need to own a pony or ride regularly to join in. Pony Club Academy is about building real equestrian knowledge through pictures, demonstrations, quizzes, challenges, discussion and problem-solving.
Perfect for pony-mad learners who want to know much more than just how to ride!
