Suffolk Show 2026 πŸŽͺπŸ‡

Our equine learners were exceptional last week at the Suffolk Show at Trinity Park.

Supporting the course-building team, led by Kelvin Bywater, they helped to prepare the showjumping courses and assisted within the arena during showjumping classes.

Throughout the 3 days onsite, they consistently demonstrated employability (ePASS) skills:
πŸ’¬ Teamwork and communication, working as committed team players to ensure everything ran smoothly and effectively.
πŸ™‚ Stand out from the crowd with a positive and motivated approach to every day and task.

Their hard work and efforts earned high praise from Kelvin and his team, we couldn’t be prouder of them πŸ‘
