New Bellringing Partnership

17 November 2022

 

This week as part of the Partnership week 4 NS pupils and 4 staff members enjoyed the first session of the inaugural bell ringing club. Every Wednesday after school the Bell Ringing club will rehearse at St Peter Mancroft Church– a national centre of excellence for bellringing since the 18th century- in preparation for the Kings Coronation in May. Huge thanks to the experienced bell ringers who showed us the ropes (literally!).    

 ‘It was very exciting to be able to bell-ring again having been a regular in my teens - luckily it was just like riding a bike and it all came flooding back. Thanks for inviting me along. See you next week!’ Mrs Hill.

Brilliant, fun and challenging to learn a unique skill that hasn't changed in several hundred years - Harry Leggett

It was an amazing opportunity to try something different! From Daniel Cracknell

I thoroughly enjoyed Wednesday's bell ringing session. I never thought I'd have the opportunity to participate in bell ringing, and I'm excited to see how our team will come together to ring for the King's Coronation next year. Summer Nesbitt U5
