Whats On

For Children & Young People:

We are really fortunate to be able to employ a part-time Children's Youth and Family Worker who works during the week in our local schools as well as Sundays across our two churches.

All our volunteers have been DBS checked and completed the Diocesan safeguarding training.

Risk assessments for events and groups are submitted to the Parochial Church Council for approval on a regular basis. 

 

 

School's Work

Members of the Ministry Team regularly go into local primary schools to lead collective worship at the request of the school.
 In the week leading up to Easter,  volunteers from the church family come together to run 'Experience Easter' which is a multi-sensory activity where children as part of their National Curriculum religious education syllabus, learn about Holy Week and Jesus' subsequent betrayal, arrest, death and resurrection. 
 
Woodlands School - Anna our CYFW worker spends a few hours each week in our local secondary school volunteering as a school pastor. Students and staff are encouraged to talk to Anna about anything concerning them.
