Equine therapy neigh bother for Claudy primary school pupils
Pupils at a County Londonderry primary school have some unusual new teachers.
Children at St Colmcille's Primary in Claudy have just begun lessons with horses at a local equine therapy centre.
Younger children from the nearby school and those with additional needs or who need a little extra support are making regular visits to the horses.
The school's principal says it has helped the children's confidence and self esteem, while a therapist at the centre says that the children are "learning by doing".
