Children’s Activities

All the Children’s Activities are Benefice wide and are headed Glenn and Maggie Coiley, with other volunteers taking a large part and making tea and clearing up the bits left over!

For younger children and carers, there is usually a weekly Friday Family Fun with puppets and stories and singing. This has been a huge success and well attended with a real feeling of creating Community whilst engaging the children in really interesting activities in St. Andrew’s for properly interactive Fridays from 9.00am. So please bring your pre-schoolers along for some fun and the adults can share some refreshments and chat.

All Age Worship happens on the 1st Sunday of every month.

For Baptism and Confirmation please use the contact us form and a churchwarden or Licenced Lay Minister will be in touch.

The annual summer camp is in the diary for this year, please see a separate post on the home page where details can be found along with an application form which will need to be completed and returned please.

If you want to contact our Children’s Team, see the contact page for e mails.
