7.4 W. Way suggested that we hold a Special Needs Class for those children that need support in the rings. M.Stringer said that there are a lot of children in our society with special needs and they do not want to have separate classes and as we are an all-inclusive society we need to make sure we are not being discriminative. A lot of discussion went on about the subject with a few committee member not agreeing with having separate classes as their children do not like to be segregated due to their special needs M.Stringer said that we could trail one class called Assistance Class which would be for any member that needs assistance in handling their ponies Child or Adult but this would mean if they entered into it that class that they would not be eligible for any other led class and this would not be a high point class. The Committee felt that there needs to be more information provided before a class could be added. W. Way said that he will find out what other showing groups do and email M. Stringer their rules and regs
