How cool would it be to take your pony to school with you in New Zealand?!

You can do exactly that at Nga Tawa Diocesan School Equestrian Academy. Set amongst 90 acres of rolling Rangitikei farmland, Nga Tawa's Equestrian Centre provides all the facilities young riders need, and is just 100 metres from the boarding houses and classrooms.

The only girls boarding school in New Zealand with an onsite Equestrian Academy. Catering for all levels and abilities, competitive and recreational.

Nga Tawa is one of few schools in New Zealand accredited to teach Unit Standards to Level 4 in Equine Studies (the Sport Horse Strand). This National Certificate can be achieved within the school curriculum. Nga Tawa is a branch of the Rangitikei Pony Club and students regularly represent their area in Zone Dressage, Showjumping Championships and New Zealand Pony Club Championships.

The Academy features three riding arenas and stables for over 80 horses and sits just adjacent to the canter track, taking riders through to picturesque paddocks. The Academy also offers a large horse transporter to ensure riders have opportunities to compete regularly at a range of events.
