Kids on Sunday
We love that kids and youth are a part of our Church.
Our children’s and youth activities are run at the 10:30am Service. They start off with the adults in the main service, and then head out to their groups together after about 15 minutes. If you’re bringing your child along for the first time we’ll ask you to provide some detail to help us care for them.
All our leaders have undergone safe ministry training and have Working With Children Checks.
Sunday 10:30am Kids’ Church groups:
- Creche (0-3 year olds)
- Preschool & Infants (4 year olds to year 2)
- Primary School (year 3 to 6)
- Youth Church (year 7-9)
For Babies: We have a ‘Cry Room’ for parents with babies, where the parents can still see and hear the service while caring for their child. The room can be accessed during any of the services.
A welcoming and fun place for kids to grow in their relationship with Jesus
Creche
10:30am Sunday
Toddlers (12 months to 3 years).
The creche starts when the other children head out to their activities. The parents then collect their children from the creche room at the end of the service.
Preschool - Year 6
10:30am Sunday
Each Sunday, our kids start off in the 10:30am service with the adults, then head out to their program in the hall. Preschool to Year 6 meet together initially, for Bible story, to learn a verse from the Bible, and play lots of games. They then split into two smaller age groups for further discussion, prayer and activities or craft.
We aim to introduce kids to the message of Jesus and help them grow in their understanding of the Bible
We seek to build them up in their faith, while having a lot of fun together and making lasting friendships
Years 7-9
10:30am Sunday
Youth Church meets on Sunday mornings during the 10.30am service to think about a part of God’s Word together. We also pray, chat, snack and play games. Our goal is to:
- Think deeply about how the Bible helps us in our daily lives and as we engage with the world
- Grow in our love for Jesus and one another
- Have fun!
During the week
As well as on Sundays, we also run a number of programs for Kids and Youth during the week. Everyone is welcome!
Play Morning
9am-10:30am Tuesday
Play Morning is a group for children 0-5 and their parents or carers, and meets in our church hall on Tuesday morning during school term time, 9am-10:30am.
We enjoy free play, stories, songs, craft, and more, as well as provide a chance for parents/carers to connect over a provided morning tea.
Youth Groups
Friday Evening & Sunday
Our Youth Groups are a place where teenagers engage with the life changing message of Jesus. Everyone is warmly invited regardless of background or life situation, and we seek to make friendships that are deep and lasting. There is a place here for you.
Holiday Kids Club
Winter School Holidays
Holiday Kids Club is an annual event run over two days during the winter school holidays for K-6 kids. From swashbuckling pirates to mighty superheroes, each year we hear about Jesus in a fresh fun way. All welcome!
Scripture in Schools (SRE)
‘Christian SRE’ seeks to educate students in the basic truths of the Bible. Students don’t need to come from a church background, as the lessons do not assume any prior knowledge. Volunteers from our church are involved in providing SRE in 4 local primary schools – Seven Hills North, The Meadows, Bert Oldfield, and Vardys Road.
Making Church Safe
As a church, we are committed to the safety and physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing of all people, particularly those who are part of our community. We adhere to a comprehensive safe ministry policy developed and overseen by the Anglican Church of Australia. All of our kids’ church and youth leaders are required to be safe ministry trained and have a current Working with Children Check.
