Our Sunday morning group for toddlers to 8 year-olds (under 3s accompanied by a parent, please!) began September 2010 in St John's Church (the other side of Red Lion Square) at 09:20 so that parents could take their children there and still get to All Saints' on time if they want to attend the Parish Eucharist. It soon outgrew the space available at St John's and now meets at the Church Centre on the corner of Scotgate and West Street, and the children are safely escorted to church via Barn Hill for the end of the Parish Communion service, in time to receive a blessing at the time of holy communion and to join in the final hymn and the after-service refreshments. Queries and offers of help, please, to Clare Camp. This is possibly the most exciting thing to happen at All Saints for some years.
Sunday Saints meets every week except when Saints Alive!, our all-age service, is on at 11:15 so that families can attend that together if they wish - opportunity for a lie-in!
Little Saints
|
Little Saints is our parent-and-toddler group which caters for accompanied children from birth to school-age on alternate Thursdays from 1.30pm to 2.30pm. Little Saints meet on 7th and 21st April, 5th and 19th May, 2nd, 16th and 30th June, and 14th and 28th July. There is play, singing, refreshments and usually some sort of craft, and parents/carers get a chance to chat to each other as well over a cup of tea and a biscuit or two. |

Saints Alive!
The monthly Saints Alive! all-age service has developed into a fellowship in itself, of all ages, of course, but young people of secondary school age have become a significant part of that fellowship. The younger members of the choir participate by leading the singing at Saints Alive! and in many other ways, too.
Choir
The choir is not, of course, a group especially for children, but there are several children and young people for whom membership of the choir is an important part of their lives and provides their Christian teaching and fellowship as well as their training in and enjoyment of music. You can find out more about the choir here.
