“You are the best horse riding teacher in the world."

To Nerine

You are the bestest Riding teacher I have ever had.

From Lateefa

From Casey, Candice, Sarah and Brianna.

Dear Nerine,

Thankyou for teaching us how to look after a horse/pony on our own. You are a lovely riding instructor with a lovely riding school and lovely ponies/horses. We miss you very very much. We all hope to see you next term.

Best wishes your Monday students.

From Casey (who now owns her own horse),

I hope you have a good holiday. I like going to horse riding. You are the best horse riding teacher I have ever known. I hope you like teaching me.

Also from Candice (who now owns her own horses).

I think Poplar Corner is a great riding school run by a great riding instructor., I enjoy riding here and being with the ponies. I have only been to one other riding school, but I think this riding school is the best school in the world. I have learnt to look after a horse by myself. I have learnt so much here that I can canter Bo and Porsche. I would like to continue riding here. I would like to learn to jump on Porsche.

“Made for a wonderful day for Brandon’s birthday (he loved it, was grinning from ear to ear) and was enjoyed thoroughly by everyone. We will certainly recommend you to others." Pauline Bon - September 2004

"Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou for teaching me how to ride a horse. You are the best horse riding teacher ever to live!"
Aimee Fuller - September 2008

A poem from a group of after school students.

There was a young girl called Nerine,
Finer rider had never been seen,
She could saddle and bridle,
Jump creeks in on stridle,
I wish we could make her our queen.

There once was a young group of kids,
Who wished they could horse ride like this,
So she taught them to ride,
Took them into her stride,
And now she has started a business.

“Annabel and Ruby had an absolutely fabulous day with you on Monday. Many thanks for making the day so special for the girls."

"I think it was excellent value"

From Fusion Australia ,

Dear Nerine.

It was truly wonderful to have "Patter" (the donkey) and you at our recent Christmas Pageant at the Hyperdome.

We have had so many positive responses from teachers, parents & shop keepers about the whole event.

If it wasn't for Patter it would not quite be the same and he was so good in not disgracing himself in the shopping centre.

Yours sincerely
