HORSES
Association Française du Poney Fell (AFPF):
Poitou-Charentes (16) Libby Robinson, with the support of the Fell Pony
Society in the UK, set up the AFPF in 2004 , which held its first show
in 2005. There are currently about four Fell pony breeders in France,
one in Bordeaux, two near Metz and one near Paris, and about 75 ponies
altogether in the Hexagon. "They’re growing in popularity, as more
people discover what great animals they are”, says Libby.

| The teachers are on strike in protest at the plan to “sedentarise” 3,000 of France’s 11,000 itinerant special needs teachers who operate Réseau d'Aide Spécialisée aux Élèves en Difficulté (RASED). Instead of moving from child to child, they will be based where there is a concentration of children with problems. Their pay will remain the same. | |
