Last week, many of our Christchurch Girls' High School | Te Kura o Hine Waiora riders competed in the interschools dressage competition held at McLeans Island, with impressive performances from all teams.

Out of 28 school teams, our Red team (Annabel Dampier-Crossley, Brooklyn McDonald, Emilia Immler and Millie Dolan) secured an outstanding second place overall, while our Blue team (Abbie Doncliff, Maddie McDonald, Sophie Wright, and Grace Stalker) finished in fourth. Congratulations also to our White team (Imogen Masters, Isobel Masters, Georgie Wright, and Katrina McPhail) who rode extremely well. A special mention to Emilia Immler who was awarded the title of best overall Level 1 rider - a well-deserved recognition for her exceptional skill and performance throughout the competition. Off to another great start with our Girls' High equestrian team this year."
