Physical Education

• They have gained knowledge about grooming tools and techniques, such as brushing, combing, and picking hooves, which contribute to the physical fitness of the horse.
• Through stable management, the child has developed an understanding of the importance of maintaining a clean and organized stable environment for the horses' health and comfort.
• They have also learned about the importance of safety measures when handling and working around horses, contributing to their own physical well-being.

Continued development can involve organizing team-based activities focused on stable management, such as mock grooming competitions or setting up agility courses for horses to encourage creativity and problem-solving skills.
