Every Tuesday during term time

Parents, grandparents and carers are welcome to bring small children (up to 5 years of age – but we envisage there will be more under 3) to St Andrew’s between 9.30am and 11.00am.

There will be toys, games, music and story time with snacks for the children, tea/coffee and biscuits for the grown-ups.

New term starts on Tuesday 5 January.

We look forward to seeing you.

Please contact the Church Centre Office on 01234 216881 for more information.

Youth

Youth work at St Andrew’s offers something for all ages. Noah’s Ark for the under fives, Scouts, Cub Scouts, Beavers, Explorers, Guides, Brownies, and Rainbows give opportunities for all. There is always a children’s craft based activity table at the back of church during the 9am and 10am services. See Organisations page for contact details.

MINISTRY TO SCHOOLS

St Andrew's School and Newnham Middle School are linked with St Andrew's on a regular basis. Music has been taken to a group of autistic children. The St Andrew's Schools Trail is a multi-sensory and participatory experience, whose aim is to welcome children to the church and make them feel comfortable. Amongst other things, they role-play the calling of Andrew and a baptism, and give a reading and a mini-sermon. They take away with them a personalised certificate of attendance, as well as a small chocolate egg.
