“We had a lovely day and thank you Central Coast Grammar School for hosting,” said Bella.
“I liked the Interschool and our age group 3/4 was really hard, but was a lot of fun.
“A big thanks to my horse Zeffy, without her I would not have won Reserve Champion,” she said. Olivia said: “I had a great time at the Central Coast Grammar School on Saturday representing Somersby Public School.
“I rode my pony Fairy, who is five-years-old and it was our first competition together.
“She was very good and we won many ribbons,” said Olivia.
