At the 15th July Ringing School at Kirtlington, we welcomed three students from Standlake for the first session, then David, Michael and Nadine to the second hour.
I’m really pleased to report that Nadine from Witney successfully passed her ART Learning the Ropes Level 1 assessment. We then took the opportunity to give our students some practice ringing rounds, call changes and Kaleidoscope exercises using the Simulator – a first experience for some of our teachers too!
Nadine gave this summary of her experience of Ringing School:
“I am thrilled to have completed the bell handling course. I just want to thank all the teachers who put so much work into me. Their patience, encouragement, and expertise are inspirational. All those comments in my blue log book will remind me of all the hours they gave so selflessly. Thank you, everyone who makes this ringing school such a success!”
