Any Affordable Horse Riding School Holiday Program for 7 Years Old in Sydney Please?

We live on the northern beaches.

Our local riding school charge 350 dollars per day. Any cheaper options please? I am happy to travel longer distance since lost my job recently.

Any other outdoor covid safe school holiday programs please?

Thanks in advance.

    Speaking from experience…

    Horses and cheap/er never appear in the same paragraph.

    Try Glenworth Valley.

    • Thanks so much. 165 per day will be much cheaper for us.

      Definitely worth the drive.

    $350 per day sounds cheap to me. Maybe your daughter could volunteer there or get casual work?

      I don't think a 7 year old will be working anywhere…

    • Do you know which one please?

      They told me 350 per day there. 1750 a week:(

      I am only 10mins away from them.

        Sorry, don't know of any.

        There would be liability insurance, etc. that would cost the business a bomb. I don't know what's reasonable; get a few quotes and post back.

        If your child was older, maybe sponsor a horse or hire it for a few weeks. The only problem is the potential liability to the owner if something were to happen to your child, which makes this avenue unlikely, hence the high formal costs.

      • There is a place that runs Pony Camp for about 200 per day, from memory. I can't tell for sure. The location is 38 Hilversum Crescent, Belrose and the phone number I sent to you in a private message. Send kids there 10 am and get them back like 3 pm? Not a full day.

        • Thanks very much. Our income has been impacted by the lockdown of northern beaches, can't afford to go at the moment. We will save up and get ready for next school holiday. Thanks very much.

          • @jiaqi518: If your kid is horse crazy and you have the time when you don't have the money, then just take your kids put on my horse and walk the horse with the lead rope in the arena. That should be simple enough for non-riders although I can't take any liability for that.

  • Jesus Christ childcare is cheaper
