After receiving her Winter Ringing School Graduation certificate earlier this month, Vikki was presented with her ART Learning the Ropes Level 1 certificate at tonight’s practice at Bletchingdon, where she also rang her first blows at Plain Hunt on 5 rather nicely.
Vikki had these words to describe her experience at Winter Ringing School this season:
“The winter ringing school has given me a lot more focussed learning than is possible at my weekly tower practice. This in turn has improved my bell control, on both hand and back stroke, increased my confidence ringing rounds and call changes and taught me how to ring the bells up and down.
The teachers are all lovely, encouraging, patient and provide a calm environment in which to get it wrong whilst endeavouring to get it right!”
Congratulations, Vikki, very best wishes to your continuing success in your ringing career!
