School visits

10-03-23

We have had several school and nursery visits to the Minster recently and we were delighted to receive this thank you card from the children of Year 2 at New Bewerley Community School, who came to learn about how and why people pray. Thank you for your wonderful drawings!

We are always very happy to host educational visits at the Minster. If you work in a school, we would love to welcome you and your class to come and learn about our history, hear about what Christians believe and how we worship, and enjoy being in our beautiful building. We have a friendly team of volunteer welcomers who will be very happy to show you and your pupils around. For more information, see our educational visits page.
