Equestrian Team

Peterborough High School has supported an Equestrian Team for five years.  The highlight of each year has been our hosting of an Inter-schools’ Showjumping Competition, held in May, for over 40 teams competing in three classes. Several girls compete for the School in local competitions and our success rates are impressive. By working with the School, girls are able to balance the demands of these events with their academic studies.

In addition to our Showjumping Competition, the PHS Equestrian team frequently compete at an event hosted by Kimbolton other schools where riders are randomly allocated different mounts so need to get to know a new pony very quickly. Although many of our riders have their own horses and ponies, the team organisers welcome pupils who enjoy riding or who have lessons but do not have their own.
