School children at show
Sir, — Once again at this year’s Canterbury A. and P. show we endured the annual; "educational and social” ex-.' perience of primary school children. Most of them were > inadequately supervised and meandered at randomthrough the horse-collecting and loose-box area. It can be. unnerving for both the horse < and. the handler to be- con- ■ fronted with a scrabble of children seemingly intent on . - self-destruction. The whole ■ area should be ■ prohibited territory for-school parties, in the interests of both the children and the exhibitors. — Yours, etc., SHIRLEY BENNETT. November 23, 1980.
