The Sunday School meets in the church hall from 9.45 am on most Sundays during term time. Three different groups cater for a wide variety of ages up to the end of primary school Year 6. The groups use materials and activities from Scripture Union as well as seasonal fun activities such as a Christmas Party, Easter Egg Hunt, Christingle Service etc. A team of 5 teachers, all of whom have a regular CRB Enhanced Check, plan and lead the sessions.
The first group, “Bubbles” - for children from the age of three to six (end of Year 1 in school). Parents are welcome to stay with their children as long as they wish to help them settle in.
The middle group, “Splash”- for children from the top end of infants school up to Year 4 (ages 6-8). Children in Bubbles and Splash come into church at the end of the service and come up for the blessing during the communion. They are invited to show their pictures and craft activities with the rest of the congregation.
The final group, “X-stream” - includes children who receive communion regularly (from age 8 after a preparation session) and/or are in Year 5 or above at school. They come into church for the Eucharistic Prayer. They are also encouraged to participate in the fuller life of the church by participating in Parade Services and singing in the informal ‘Generations’ music group.
