The Berakah Miniatures Show Team
NCC Students Engage in a Diverse and Rewarding Academic Life
Preparing students for a successful future starts at a young age. A strong curriculum combined with a stimulating learning environment has seen NCC consistently achieve outstanding academic results.
NCC Berakah Miniatures Show team
The NCC Berakah Miniatures Show team is one of the College’s many exceptional co-curricular activities available to our students. There are usually about 25-30 students actively involved in the Show Team looking after the 12 horses in the Show Team.
The team is organised into Trainees, Co-Handlers, Lead Handlers, Group Leaders and Team Captain. Leadership is highly valued within the team and training and mentoring is provided for those students who gain these positions.
The BMST travel far and wide as they attend a number of shows each year across SE Queensland (Maleny, Nambour, Kilcoy, Marburg, Kingaroy, Brookfield, State Championships, etc) and have gained amazing success in the few years they have been competing. In 2012, the first contingent of NCC students competed at the Miniature Horse Of Australia National Championships in Sydney. The last five National Champions in Youth Performance at the the Miniature Horse Association of Australia’s National Championships have been current or ex Nambour Christian College BMST students.
The best thing about the BMST is that students learn not only how to take care of and train the horses but also how to work as a team and develop leadership and character-building skills difficult to obtain in a standard school setting. A year or two in the BMST is a life transforming experience.
