Each week we have fun with a lively mix of games, crafts, challenges and of course, the tuck shop. We.also take a look at a Bible story or theme, discovering what God says and what we think about it. Among other things we have gone ringoing at Snowtrax, cooked biscuits, made music using junk instruments, and played lots of games!
We work towards awards – Mind, Body, Spirit, Community, Creativity – and awards are presented at our annual awards service in July.
Adventurers is all about having fun, making friends, enjoying lots of activities and trying new things. If this sounds good, we’d love to see you so come along and let the adventure begin!

We begin in the main service and then go out for singing and Bible teaching in various groups: Sparklers, Fireworks, Rockets, Lasers and our older Fusion group. We follow the Go Teach material in lively, interactive sessions, where the children get the chance to act, play games, ask questions, pray and learn.
There is also a manned creche available during the morning service for any very little ones!
Holiday Club
Once a year during the summer school holidays, we run Holiday Club for children in school years R – 6. It is a week of huge fun, craft-making, puppets, games and Bible stories for kids to enjoy… and the same could be said for the adult helpers too!
Each year we have a theme. In the past we’ve had weeks based on “Farmyard Fun”, “Going for Gold” (Athletics), “Space Quest”, “Saddle Up” (Wild West) and “Jungle Explorers”.
We tie the theme to a set of Bible stories told throughout the week and have a special service on the Sunday following where we invite friends and family along to celebrate the week we’ve had together.
