Expand the headings for more info on the regular groups we offer.
There is currently no sign up prior to our sessions however you must register at the door if you attend any group.
We hope you find a friendly welcome whenever you come! If you have any queries at all please do contact me, Sarah Holton on 07503944905 or kidschurch@allsaintsmarple.co.uk.
At All Saints Kids’ Church we want to equip all children and families to be lifelong followers of Jesus by being people who: encounter and love God, learn about Jesus’ ways and share this life with others.
On Sundays at our 10:15am gathering children register in the link corridor of church before the service (from 10am). They join everyone in the Church for the first few worship songs before being led to the Hall for age-specific groups. If it is your first time, we will need permission to look after your child and find out which group they will be in and where they get collected from. Parents are always welcome to stay with children until your child feels happy to attend on their own.
- Gems (ages 0–3)
- Scramblers (EYFS ages 3–5)
- Climbers (KS1 ages 6–7)
- Explorers (KS2 ages 7–11)
