From April to November 2013, Manchester Cathedral will be in the care of building contractors whilst we undertake important renovation work. The Education Department are delighted to announce that this will not stop us engaging pupils in exciting learning experiences outside of the classroom.

St Ann’s, City Centre - Mondays, Easter to November 2013
Rochdale Parish Church - April 15 to May 15 2013
Ashton Parish Church - May 20 to June 19 2013
