Today's theme for Mental Health Awareness Week is "Belonging Matters." This resonates so well with our kaupapa here at Ambury where one of our core values is "kotahitanga" - community. No matter who you are or where you are from you should feel there is a place you belong. We see the positive effects in the wider community when people feel a sense of belonging!

Our hōiho are excellent at showing kotahitanga when they accept each other as part of the Ambury herd (except maybe for when they're vying for carrots 😅)

The holiday break is nearly over, but we are still buzzing from Ribbon Day and celebrating the achievements of our Blues and Vocs. At Ambury we have always been more than a therapeutic riding centre - we are a community and it's such a privilege to celebrate that, to focus on the joy of the outcomes of hard work, self-belief and perseverance.
To our fabulous Blues we would like to say:
Kei ōu ringaringa te ao (the world is in your hands)
To our fabulous Vocs we would like to say:
Mauria te pono (believe in yourselves)
To all at Ambury we would like to say:
Ko koutou ā mātou whetū kanapa (you are all our shining stars 🌟)

Three guesses what we are doing at work today...

Vote for our darling Angel! ❤️ (Photo by the fabulous Shelley Trueman, our dawn-awakener who captures such pretty horse photos at sunrise!)

Galaxy Angel Jane is a gorgeous 14.2hh English Riding Pony x Stationbred mare who has been part of the Ambury Park Centre RDA team since 2023.

She is a sensitive soul who has a lot to offer, working extra hard to look after her riders both on the ground and in the saddle. Angel absolutely lives up to her name and barely complains when she’s awake at the crack of dawn, ready for her mahi!

🗳Could Angel be one of our 2027 Calendar stars?

Check out our judge for today's Ribbon Day showcase - the amazing (and gorgeous) Kaye, pictured (right) with Equine Manager Awhina. We couldn't think of a better person to support and celebrate the equine achievements of our hardworking rangatahi and kiritaki mahi (vocational clients.) Kaye, he hoa tino nui koe 🌟
