Groups for children and youth 

We love having lots of children and young people at St Peter's. We believe that children are a gift from God, are loved by Jesus, and are the future of the church, so we are deeply committed to providing the very best care, fun, and appropriate Bible input to even the youngest members of our family. We also want to support parents in their crucial role as the primary disciplers of their children.

We have fantastic facilities, and a committed team of full-time and volunteer staff who run groups for all ages.

Parents

We want to partner with parents in their role as the primary disciplers of their children. We try to do this in lots of ways informally, but we also run various events for parents through the year.

Explorer parents are invited to join other parents during Explorers on Tuesdays, 4.30-5.30pm at The Hub. It’s a welcoming, supportive group, chatting over coffee, plus 5@5— a five-minute Bible focus at 5pm.

Pathfinder and CYFA parents meet at The Hub once each half term on a Wednesday evening to get to know each other and think through how to raise our children in the Christian faith.

Parents’ training evenings take place once a term, with resources and help for godly parenting in an ever-changing society.
