Groups for children
We provide the following activities for pre-schoolers and school-aged children on Sundays and during the week.
Under Fives
Mainly Music
Songs and action rhyme for babies and children under 5 years. Starts at 10 am on Tuesdays and runs for 30 minutes followed by eating our morning tea for children and parents. Cost $4 donation per family per session. During school terms.
Dress warm as we are meeting in the playgroup area, taking advantage of the playground afterwards if dry. Contact Kathryn at for more information.
School Children
Sundays
Our primary-aged children are included as part of our services each week. They add a richness of voice to our readings and we love hearing their answers to the questions of the day. We have tables with activities that our creative people of all ages use. Our services are where all ages and stages worship and explore faith together.
On the first and third weeks we offer a space for kids during the sermon before rejoining the church family for the remainder of the service together.
School Holiday Programme
In the first week of the July and October holidays, we run a holiday programme full of fun, games, crafts, and great Bible teaching. For more details and queries contact .
This year (2024) our holiday programmes were in July and coming up in the October holidays, in the first week.
In October Holiday Programme is from 30th Sept – 4 October, 9 – 12.30 pm, called Stellar and is thinking about how we can still shine in sad, happy and hard moments.
Donations are gratefully accepted for the costs of the programme. Children need to have attended a full term at school before coming to the holiday programme, this is to their benefit and of our young volunteers. Please arrive between 8.40 and 9 am so they all start together. We are a volunteer-run programme with supervised teenagers leading parts of the programme. Let Claire know if they can’t attend on
We run a leadership development programme for youth to learn about leadership and get a chance to practice it. This is often an opportunity for community service hours and to be used as a reference for jobs in the future. To register go here
All Family
Messy Church
Messy Church runs from 4 pm til 6 pm most third Saturdays during the year. We have refreshments and games followed by activities and crafts. We celebrate together with some fun songs, short teaching/story time, and creative prayer. We share a meal to finish.
Is for all the family – not just the kids.
Intergenerational
In our 9 am and 11 am Sunday Services, we intentionally welcome all ages. We think we can learn from everyone and that it is important to share in growing in faith with all ages. Everyone is important.
We are dedicated to developing lifelong faith formation for all ages and stages.
