Thank you everyone for your patience as we navigate the continual restrictions and border closures, and reschedule our clinics.
Andrea Riedel Carrison Dressage Clinic 2021 - We have now postponed this clinic to Saturday 20 November 2021. Hopefully by then things will have settled down, the weather will be warm and we will have plenty of day light. We will send out the booking to the online booking system closer to the date.
THAC Interprimary Games Day – postponed until later in the year. A new date will be advertised very soon.
Adam Wootten Showjumping Clinic – postponed to 18-19 September 2021. Entries are open on our website and will be pursuant to the government restrictions at the time.
THAC Western District Interschools Equestrian Competition – postponed to December 2021. We are hoping that by this date we are able to welcome all our competitors to this event!
We welcome enrolments for our Junior and Senior Horsemanship program at any time. The forms are attached to this newsletter and have also been emailed. We have Maureen McGrath coaching our Senior Horsemanship group this term for our Tuesday night show jumping program. Anthea Sutherland, Christine Corbidge and Angela Lea continue to share their expertise with our students coaching our Horsemanship program this term also.

Please note any horses who are regularly coming to and from the Hamilton and Alexandra College Equestrian Centre must be up to date with vaccinations for Tetanus and Strangles and records of these will be maintained to ensure the biosecurity of the centre. You must also notify the Director of Horsemanship immediately if your horse has been in or originated from Queensland or Northern New South Wales. Please let me know if you have any concerns or questions.
