How does it work?
All the children go into the normal adult Church Service on a Sunday morning with their parents, or a responsible adult, and join in the service. They leave the adult service after about 15 minutes (following the collection) and go into their own different classes, as follows:
(Beginners) 3 to 4 years old approximately
(Primary) 5 to 7 years old approximately
(Juniors) 8 to 11 years old approximately
(Young People) 12 to 16 years old approximately
After the service their parents or the responsible adult collects them from their class.
What are the children taught in their classes?
The children are taught about Jesus and the Bible together with practical activities based on age-related lessons.
