Creche (0-2 years) Our purpose built crèche is housed on the first floor, adjacent to the auditorium. Connected to the main church via a large glass window, it enables parents to feel a part of the church community while hearing the service through live sound system. There are plenty of toys, baby equipment, rocking chair etc and the room is sound proofed, so no one has to worry if their baby gets a little vocal!

Croft Tots (2-4 years) Toddlers are given lots of space to roam and play in a large room located in the Chapel. Parents with toddlers between the ages of 2 and 4 can use the facility to keep an eye on their little ones while listening to the service, which is available via a large screen. Parents are responsible for their children at all times. Lots of toys are on hand for the children and an unlimited supply of tea and coffee for parents, who have their own drinks machine. Every session includes a 20 minute special Tots session with a story, singing, percussion and craft. Croft Tots opens at 10.30am.

Kids Quest (4-11 years) Children aged between 4 and 11 (primary school age) can join our Kids Quest. We use a large hall, sectioned off for a wide range of activities centred around a different biblical topic each session. There is a stage for drama and singing performances which we use each week. The children also enjoy group activities such as making crafts, which they take home, and a Games slot where they learn the art of teamwork. Carpets and cushions provide a unique atmosphere for movie time when the children watch a weekly cartoon from the Friends and Heroes bible story series. Kids Quest opens at 10.00am for registration when parents can leave their children safe in the hands of our team who are DBS checked. The group is run by a Headteacher with many years’ experience working with young children. For those parents joining the main service, there is a walkie talkie link available. We provide refreshments for the children, which always includes healthy options. We regularly join the main church cohort for a Family Service when the children are involved in presenting items to the congregation. Kids Quest finishes at 12.00noon when parents collect their child. Kids Quest, and all its activities, is FREE.
