Kids learn the finer art of horse riding at Horseshoe Point Resort and Country Club

Many of the region’s children on summer holidays had the opportunity to ‘horse around’ at the Horseshoe point last weekend. The Horseshoe Point Resort and Country Club’s riding academy held a Cowboys and Cowgirls day in the grounds of the resort.

Part of the day’s activities included trail rides and plenty of games for the children participating during day’s events. Horse riding is another form of sport now available to the wider population in the Pattaya’s growing tourism and sporting sectors.

Swinburne Tummasiri has been offering career focused education since 1998 and is working towards gaining accreditation as a private institute of technology, thus allowing the expansion of deliverable programs to include degrees and postgraduate qualifications.

His Excellency also expressed interest in Swinburne Tummasiri’s new promotion drive to encourage students seeking an international qualification in Science (I.T.), Business (International Trade) or Engineering (Electronics) to consider undertaking the first two years of their program within Thailand at Swinburne Tummasiri.

Upon completion of the Associate Degree with Swinburne Tummasiri, students would then be able to transfer to Swinburne in Australia to complete and receive their bachelor degree from Swinburne University of Technology in Melbourne.
