Rowena (in her first year) has been enjoying riding Shane, going to the gym, using the bikes. She says "I really liked a night out at the local hall, seeing the 'Orkestra del Sol'. They had trumpets, trombones, violins and a French horn, it was very loud but we danced and the band passed in and out of us."

Grace (2nd year) enjoyed the quiz night in the local, specially getting one of the music questions right! She recently went with Lyn and a couple of staff members to the new 'Ironworks' music venue in Inverness. Grace says " It was really busy but good fun." She likes riding Hal and Bouncer best.

Beth (also in her first year) says "I like being at the Bridg'it Venture because I'm making new friends. I like cleaning tack in the yard, grooming Freya and Lottie even though she tries to nibble me sometimes!" Beth goes with Grace to a special Sports Club on a Monday night.

Grace, Rowena and Beth went to the cinema in Inverness a couple of weeks ago, Rowena doesn't go at home so she really enjoyed the outing. Beth and Rowena also like baking cakes (and eating them!) and their speciality this term is Victoria Sponge!

Lyn (in her 4th year now) joined these three in their own version of the X-Factor one evening recently, rehearsing Westlife's 'Raise Me Up' to Rachels guitar accompaniment - the cause of much hilarity!

We all took part in the Loch Ness 5k Fun Run in Inverness at the beginning of October, Beth and Rowena say this was the highspot of their time so far at the Bridg'it Venture!
