The Sunday Group (for children aged 11 and under) meets every Sunday in term-time. They meet up in church at 10.00 am and then proceed to the Vicarage, rejoining the church family at the beginning of the Eucharist.
All the children meet together for singing, a story linked to a Biblical theme and prayer, before dividing into different groups according to age. Activities for children aged 3-10 include games, puzzles, handicrafts, stories and drama. The Creche provides care for babies and children up to 3 years old. |
Activities with other churches
You are welcome to these events, whether you belong to another church, or no church at all - come and join us!
Re-Active 8-11 is an ecumenical youth club for 8-11 year olds. It meets every Monday evening in term time from 6.30 to 8.00 pm in the Methodist Hall. I am told that there are various activities, from craft work to skittles. Refreshments are available, and the evening ends with a quiet period, perhaps watching a video. Why not pay RE-ACTIVE a visit? |

This year the 'Bananas' Club celebrates its sixth birthday. On Friday 11th September we are holding a Birthday Party at 6.00 pm, and we are having a 'Bananas have got Talent' Contest based on the TV series but hopefully with less controversy! All children of primary school age are welcome to come along and join in the fun, perhaps enter the contest themselves, bring a friend and enjoy the birthday tea.
We are asking those who are coming to let us know so that we can plan the evening properly. Parents are also warmly invited. More information is available from the Parish Office (01749 676906) or email us.
Oh, and why is it called 'Bananas'? Well, at the planning meeting to launch the new club over six years ago, our then curate said 'You'd be bananas to miss it' and the name stuck. It is aimed at primary school-age children, and meets in church usually on the second Friday of each month. You do not have to be a church member to join in the fun!! The children take part in a variety of activities - making things, taking part in team games, listening to stories. Do come and join us if you would like to.
All you need is an apron and 50p for admission. Come along to St Cuthbert's from 6-7.15 pm on the second Friday of the month (but keep an eye on the church notice board for changes of date) and go 'Bananas' with us!! |
