KIDS

We’d love to welcome your child or teen to join us - because at church, they’ll find more than activities; they’ll find a family

Exciting Opportunities for Children

At our church, we’re passionate about creating fun, engaging, and meaningful opportunities for children and teens to connect, grow, and thrive. Whether it’s through Junior Church on Sundays or Youth Group on Mondays, there’s something for everyone under 18 to enjoy and be part of.

Junior Church & Youth Group Update: 15th May 2025

From Sunday 18th May, there will be a temporary pause in organised Junior Church activities and Youth Group at St Mary’s. Families attending services on Sunday with children and infants are very welcome to use the activities area at the back of church, as well as the crèche. Traditionally, Junior Church & Youth Group has taken a break over the summer, and we plan to relaunch activities after Revd David Chislett’s arrival from September.

Youth Group | Monday at 5.30pm

Youth Group is designed for teens looking for a space to hang out, have fun, and deepen their faith. Whether it’s through group discussions, games, or special outings, Youth Group is a time to:

  • Explore Faith in a way that’s relatable and relevant to everyday life.

  • Build Friendships with peers who share similar values and experiences.

  • Get Involved with service projects, creative activities, and leadership opportunities.

Junior Church | Sunday at 9.45am

Junior Church is perfect for kids aged 4-16 years, offering a fun and creative environment where faith comes alive. Each week, children gather to:

  • Grow in Faith through interactive Bible stories, songs, and age-appropriate lessons.

  • Have Fun with games, crafts, and activities that make learning exciting.

  • Make Friends and build connections with others in a welcoming, supportive community.

Special projects, seasonal activities like nativity plays, and opportunities to contribute to church events make Junior Church a place where every child can feel inspired and involved.
