The first Uplands Horse Training Show was held on 14 October 2006. It was open to College and Prep riders who participate in lessons held at school in order to expose them to a show environment.

We held both jumping and dressage classes, namely a lead rein class, a 50 cm jumping class and an 80 cm class. Hennie, our instructor, designed a basic dressage test. We had 12 riders participating. All riders were awarded certificates of participation and rosettes.

The level of capability was high and it shows that the Equestrian Centre has riders of talent. We hope to harvest this talent as the riders progress through both the Prep and the College.

We will be hosting another show in the near future - it will be decidedly more competitive. Watch this space!
