The Plenty Campus of Ivanhoe Grammar School has developed an extensive and unique Equestrian Program, providing a range of opportunities for students at the Campus as well as from the wider community. This program enhances the cross-campus academic, sport and co-curricular programs as well as community service.
Riding lessons are offered to students during school hours and after school as a co-curricular activity, providing opportunities for students from all campuses to experience riding without the commitment of owning their own horse or pony. Ponies and gear are provided and students are given the choice of individual or shared lessons. A fully qualified and experienced NCAS Coach provides these lessons to beginners as well as to more experienced riders.
