Children and Young People

We have a wide age range of young people attached to the Church and we try to ensure that our weekly worship is accessible to them. We meet as a whole church at the start of the service and then on most Sudays split into groups as shown below. These are staffed by church members who have up to date DBS checks. We also have stringent safeguarding procedures where all those involved with children and young people (and vulnerable adults) have been trained.

Creche

We have provision for children up to the age of approximately 3 in our creche from the time the young people leave the main service. This is staffed by two members of the church.

Sunday Club

Co-ordinator – Karen Baldock

This is aimed at children from the age of approximately 4 upwards. Children can attend Sunday Club until parents decide their children are ready to remain in the main service. As with the creche this is staffed by at least two members of the congregation.

All Age Worship

At regular intervals during the year we have a service where all ages remain together in church to worship and have fun together.

Communion

Children are welcome to take communion. When the service includes communion the young people will be brought back into church to re-join the rest of the congregation.

Parents and Toddlers

The Parent and Toddlers group meets on Fridays, in term time only, between the hours of 9.30am to 11.30am. Again this is run by members of the church family who have relevant DBS checks.

Activity Afternoons

Weekly, during the Summer holidays and at various other times in the year, we hold family activity afternoons which include games and crafts.

Messy Church

On the first Saturday of the month from 12:00noon until 1:30pm we hold our Messy Church, which includes a free lunch.

Uniform Bank

Our uniform bank provides free second-hand uniform for pupils attending Toll Bar school. Please message for details.
