Children & Young people

SUNDAYS

There’s something for all ages in our Sunday children and young people’s work.

The littlest of our family go out to the, where they have a variety of toys to play with and friendly faces to get to know (and a cuddle if it all gets too much).

Much too grown up for the crèche are the Minnows, our 3-5 year olds, who spend their time together singing, celebrating birthdays and then doing fun activities and crafts related to that week’s Bible teaching.

Joining the Minnows for the first part of the session are the Jim-Jams, our 5-11 year old group. They join together for the singing and birthdays and then break out in their own group for activities and teaching specially tailored for their ages. Once a year Jim-Jams go on a sailing day, which is always a highlight - especially if the sun shines!

For those aged 11 and upwards, Jammy Dodgers meet in their own room, starting with refreshments and then an icebreaker leading into that week’s discussion, then closing in prayer. Topics range from feeling unloved to how to act in a Christian way, creation, sex, drugs and the place of the church in today’s society

WEEKDAYS

First Steps is a group of parents and tots who meet on Thursday mornings from 9:45-11:15 in our Upper Hall. There’s toddler toys, a baby corner and craft and activity tables, a drink of juice and a biscuit (and a cuppa for parents), then we finish with some action songs all together. First week is FREE! And thereafter it’s £1.50.

7up meet on Friday evenings from 6:30-7:45 for all aged 7-11. A typical evening consists of games, a Bible story, DVD or quiz, a craft activity, refreshments and a final game if there’s time! A weekly subscription of £1 covers the cost of refreshments and craft materials.

Revel8 also meet on Friday nights, between 8 and 9:30pm, for all aged 11-18. A more relaxed, chilled atmosphere with the occasional structured activity thrown in, (such as craft, cookery and table tennis) and a short devotional time each week.
