The Programme
EquiScholars
EquiScholars is an engaging and educational programme designed to help children and young people learn about horses in a hands-on, ground-based environment. Offering a structured, comprehensive curriculum that covers everything from horse care to understanding equine behaviour, EquiScholars blends education with excitement — designed to inspire young equine enthusiasts.
