The school bell was donated in February 1982 to Beaconhills College by Errol Robinson (1916-1989) chairman of the local water board. Mr Robinson was the father-in-law of one of the school parents - Mr Ted Fankhauser who was later to be the school's first Business Administrator. The bell was dedicated at the school's annual church service. The dedication was made by Archbishop Sir Frank Woods on 28 March 1982. The bell is no longer in use but serves as a symbol of the founding years of the college. Note there has been some discussion about the original donation date actually occurring in 1983 - this is being investigated.The brass bell, gifted to Beaconhills College in February 1982 by local Water Board chairman Errol Robinson, is a cherished symbol of the College’s formative years. Its donation—facilitated through family ties within the school community—reflects the deep spirit of collaboration and support that defined the early culture of Beaconhills. The bell was formally dedicated by Archbishop Sir Frank Woods at the school’s annual church service on 28 March 1982. Though it is no longer rung, the bell serves as a powerful emblem of tradition and identity, marking a time of growth, faith, and communal vision. Today, it stands not as a functional tool, but as a resonant echo of the College’s beginnings—honouring the people, values, and moments that shaped its foundation. Complete brass bell with brass tongue. Large. Inscription plate on the front. Brass bracket attached to the top of the bell with a brass hexagonal nut and bolt also brass.Presented to Beaconhills Christian College by EG Robinson Dedicated on the 28th March 1982 by Archbishop Sir Frank Woods
