MEET ROSIE CLASS OF 2025 Weekly Boarder and Horsemanship Captain
Rosie is from Wal Wal and came to the College to access the equestrian facilities and the other opportunities that the school provides.
Rosie has one of her six horses at school with her and has undertaken Equine Studies. A country girl at heart, Rosie sees herself following a career in agriculture and/or equine to ensure that she can follow her passion with horses.
I am really enjoying the Boarding House. I love that I can feed and ride Rocket before and after school. Having Rocket so close to the boarding precinct has really made it a home away from home for me. I also participate in Horsemanship lessons after school each week and the level of instructors is incredible.
