Sundays

 

Crèche

0-3 year olds

  • Each Sunday morning (apart from Cafe Church) there is a crèche available in the lower ground floor room. We also have sofas and baby toys in church and a speaker in the foyer should you want to sit somewhere more private.

Scramblers

3–5 year olds

  • We have a large downstairs room, resources and outside garden dedicated to early years for ‘best practice in play’ based learning. Each session explores more of God's plan for our lives and includes take home resources for parents to use at home. It's all co-ordinated and run by a great team of leaders and helpers that includes professional early years teachers.

Climbers

5–7 year olds

  • Climbers join Scramblers in our large downstairs room (after initially meeting in the 10.30 service) for ‘best practice in play’ based learning. Each session explores more of God's plan for our lives and includes take home resources for parents to use at home. It's all co-ordinated and run by a great team of leaders and helpers that includes professional early years teachers.

Explorers

7–11 year olds

  • Explorers meet during our 10:30am Sunday service (except Cafe Church services) before gathering in one half of our church hall for worship, prayer, teaching and fun. On the 2nd Sunday of the month the Explorers and Pathfinders meet together starting at 10:30 for hot chocolate and toast.

Pathfinders

11-14 year olds

  • Pathfinders is our group for school years 7 to 9 (ages 11 - 14) that meets  during our 10:30am Sunday service before heading to the church hall for worship, prayer, teaching and fun. The 2nd Sunday also includes toast and hot chocolate.

 
 

For the little ones…
