Children's Activities

In our churches the term 'children' includes anyone from infancy up to the age of 10 years. After that they are classed as 'young people' and you can find what we have to offer them on the 'young people's activities' page.

Here we list some of our activities for children and their parents and carers.

Sunday School

Sunday School activities for children aged 3 to 10 years are held every Sunday during term time in both our churches during morning service times. They offer a wide range of Bible and Christian teaching and are always good fun.

Parents and carers are welcome to stay with their children and to help with the activities if they want to.

Toddlers' Clubs

Mother and Toddler Group

Toddlers' Clubs are for parents and carers with pre-school age children. They meet regularly during school term times on Monday mornings at Christ Church and on Tuesday and Thursday mornings and Wednesday afternoons at St Mark's.

During the school holidays additional meetings and activities are sometimes arranged. You can find out if any are happening now by checking the 'Month-at-a-Glance' page or by phoning the Parish Office.

Jo Jingles

Jo Jingles provides fun, music, singing and movement in classes specially designed for babies and young children and their parents or carers.  With the help of the Jo Jingles doll, and using music and movement techniques, children are helped to develop language and numeracy skills, improve physical co-ordination, gain confidence and independence, interact with other children and gain social skills.

Classes are held on Mondays at St Mark's during term time. They last for around 45 minutes.  Sessions are run to suit all ages.
