Creche
A creche facility is available every Sunday for the morning services. At the moment there are about half a dozen children in the creche. However we do encourage people to replenish the creche!

the YF
Every three weeks there is an informal get together for those of secondary school age. This normally takes place after the evening service at the manse. The program is varied, dealing with all sorts of issues in all sorts of ways. It also gives us a good excuse just to get together, have a laugh and eat too much!

Holiday Clubs
It's the highlight of every summer! Every July a themed holiday club is run for a week. Last year we were in the desert with Pyramid Rock; the year before we were 'Going Bananas', This year we hit the track with Champions Challenge and next year there will be another adventure. There are always loads of games, crafts, Bible stories and of course our drama that is so bad it's good!

Just for Starters
This group is for young Christians (of all ages!) and those interested in becoming Christians. We meet every few weeks to discuss the basics of the Christian faith. We talk about things like reading our Bibles and prayer. We look at what it means to be a Christian and ask all the questions we are too afraid to ask anywhere else. Just for Starters is a great opportunity for adults and children to talk about faith together.

Bible Class
At the same time as Sunday School there is a Bible Class for children of secondary school age where the teaching and the issues discussed are more appropriate to that age group
