Equestrian
We welcomed back some of our senior students and their horses to the Equestrian Centre last week! It has been so lovely to see our students enjoying time with their horses and being active outside of their study time. Thank you to Cherie who has given the Equestrian Centre a makeover during the remote learning period. We look forward to welcoming more students for the final two weeks of Term 2 and then at the start of Term 3!
Equestrian Achievements
Congratulations to Jack Addinsall who was recently awarded the Victorian Modern Pentathlon U13 male Championship!! Due to Covid 19 restrictions there was no presentation and he received his trophy and certificate in the mail. A fabulous achievement!!
We always look forward to hearing about your Equestrian achievements! Please regularly email these to ateboekhorst15@hamiltoncollege.vic.edu.au
Individual and team equestrian achievements are important and valuable to collate over the course of the year in the lead up to the awards ceremony later in the year. Therefore students and parents are always encouraged to communicate details of equestrian achievements on a regular basis.

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.
