School Age Programs

Children are a gift from the Lord; they are a reward from him.” Ps 127:3.

  • Markies

    Markies is a program which runs for children during the sermon. It is split into three age appropriate groups: Babies - 4yo, Kinder - Grade 2 and Grade 3-6. During this time we spend half the time together hearing the bible story and participating in activities and games relevant to the reading, and the othe half engaging with reading in the specific age groups. Markies is a wonderful environment where kids are given the opportunity to learn about God and form lasting friendships.

Grades 7 - 12 are invited to join us Friday (term-time) from 6:30pm - 8:30pm for games and thought provoking discussion. A great opportunity to explore a relationship with God whilst getting to know one another.
