Pony Rides at Ikhayalethemba
There was great excitement and some trepidation when a pony
arrived at Ikhayalethemba. Kindly, some
members of the community brought along their pony and a small quad bike so that
the children could have rides. Not all of the children were impressed by the
arrival of a horse at first and a few retreated inside under the bed!
However, after some encouragement and coaxing all the
children were at least happy to pat the horse. Others of course were more than
happy to have their turn riding both the horse and the quad bike. It was warm
and sunny and this suited the fun mood of the day. It wasn’t long before the children were
finding grass and carrots to feed the horse.
It was lovely to see that some of the children who were
quite afraid of horses late last year were now more than pleased to have a
ride. The quad bike was quite a hit and there was little reluctance by anyone
to have a turn. It was a great day and a
wonderful experience for the children.
We thank the members of the community for their kindness in providing
such a fun time for the children.
