My Learning Story

Term 2 Week 6

The Activity I Did:

On Friday 10th of June a group 7 of kids went to Muriwai for a forest and beach horse trek. We rode through the mysterious forest and along the beautiful beach.

The Learning I Did:

On this trek I learnt how to steer a horse and I learnt how to make the horse slow down/stop. I also learnt how to calm down the horse when she spooked although it was really scary. I learnt that horses are pack animals so other horses actions affect their actions.

Opportunities or Possibilities:

I think the instructor could have ridden a calmer horse because his horse kept on spooking our horses which was pretty scary.

Plus I think next time I go riding could wear boots or bring a spear pair of shoes.
