Children
Laying a solid foundation for our children is of paramount importance to all parents. We believe teaching children the basics of our faith and stories from the bible is important for their future development and progress in life. There are many groups children and youth may attend.
Crèche
A crèche is held during the morning service each Sunday and is for babies and toddlers who are looked after by experienced helpers. Here the children can have a real fun time with the extensive collection of toys and games.

This is a relaxed, informal gathering for all ages of pre-school children and babies. Mums (and dads, grand parents & child minders) can have a cup of coffee and a chat while the kids just have a good time with each other and a host of toys.
We meet on Wednesday mornings at 10.00 until about 11.30; there is a charge of £1 per family per visit to cover refreshments and toy renewal.
