A new education officer has been appointed at the University Church of St Mary the Virgin.

Lea Kloeppinger will be starting her full time role on Monday, November 4 at the church in High Street.

Ms Kloeppinger came to Oxford in 2011 to work as education and outreach officer trainee with the Oxford University Museums and then went on to work as heritage learning assistant at the Museum of Oxford and visitor host at the Bodleian Libraries.

She said: “I’m excited about the opportunity to learn more about St Mary’s, build relationships with schools and am looking forward to meeting the congregation and the volunteers.”
