Matthew Austin arrived at Kent School (preparatory, boarding high school) in 2008 to teach mathematics and started ringing later that academic year. Students can ring at Kent as their afternoon activity, as their student job (providing service ringing around our chapel programs), or just for fun; Matt gets to do all three!
To connect with and learn from fellow ringers they make (made) frequent trips to Smith College, Boston, and New York, and less-frequent trips to Philadelphia, Washington, and England. On one drive back from Washington the kids asked “Mr. Austin, is there a bell-ringing podcast we can listen to,” and the idea for Treble’s Going was born.
