On Sunday mornings during the first half of the service we run a number of children’s activities. We believe at St. Matthew’s that our children deserve the very best in the nurturing of their spirituality, so, rather than have them sitting through a sermon which is mostly aimed at the adult members of the congregation, they have their own groups where they are able to engage with the scriptures in their own way. Our Sunday morning groups meet every week during term time. During the holidays they meet as one big group.
For children who are in school year 3 to year 6. Learning about our faith and traditions through stories and craft… they meet during the first half of the service and re-join the congregation , along with Small Steps at the point in the service where we share Christ’s peace with each other.
A weekly session on Monday mornings in our Parish room starting at 9.30am. Refreshments, toys and fellowship for Mums and Dads, Grannies and Grandads, carers and childminders… and their little ones.
