Our Education team hosted a party in the stunning surroundings of the Bishop's garden in the lee of the Cathedral, for Headteachers, Governors and EDRAs from our Diocese of Ely schools. Director of Education Jon Young thanked staff and volunteers, alongside Bishop Dagmar, who also presented a certificate of participation for the Bishop's Lent Challenge
This party with a purpose was an opportunity to say a huge Thank you for their effort and commitment in helping our schools across the diocese to be places where children and young people thrive.

Saint Selfie Blessing Booth
Artist Kristin Bailey was invited, along with Etheldreda and her sisters(!), to the garden party. Kristin also brought along her Saint Selfie Blessing Booth, and party-goers were encouraged to choose one or more words to represent something they would like to see more of in their lives, the world, or just to illustrate how they were feeling. Kristin recently exhibited her work at Ely Cathedral.
