Children form an important part of our worship at St. Andrews.
You should not feel stressed bringing younger children to St. Andrews - there is a relaxed feel to the congregation where even the occasional loud scream is a welcome contribution to proceedings!
However, if parents/carers feel the need for a time out, there is a 'Chill Out Room' for use with babies and toddlers. Available are toys, books and drawing materials.
For most 10am services during term time, children of 3 years and older are invited to the 'Yellow Room'. The children meet together for about half an hour during the first part of the service.
Activities include bible study, stories, group discussions, drawing and crafts based upon a weekly theme. We use the 'Seasons of the Spirit' published materials, which follow the lectionary, so children and adults engage with the same passages of scripture.
For days when the Yellow Room is not meeting, drawing materials are made available.
