Activities for children and young families at HT
TODDLER CHURCH meets Thursday mornings during termtime from 10am to 11.15am. This is part playgroup, and part very simple worship. You are welcome to drop in occasionally or come regularly, and you will be made very welcome. It’s appropriate for babies from birth right up until they go to nursery, and it’s a great way for parents and carers to make friends too. Term time only.
JUNIOR CHURCH is our Sunday School and takes place during the 10 o’clock Sunday services. Children start with their parents in church and after about 10 minutes go out together for their own learning, games, craft and chats. They return together at the end of the service to receive a blessing (or Communion if they’ve been prepared for that). It’s suitable for children aged 3 up, and parents are welcome to join them until they’re happily settled.
Children’s Corner
If you have younger children in church on Sunday mornings, you’re welcome to sit with them in the children’s corner, where there are books, toys, puzzles and colouring. There are colouring boxes which they can take to the pew if you prefer.
TYG – The Youth Group. This friendly and inclusive group meets once a month on the 3rd Sunday, from 6pm to 7.30pm. It’s for young people from Year 6 upwards. They play games, puzzles, escape rooms, quizzes and discussions, and usually share a meal together during the evening.

ALL AGE SERVICES – Our monthly services are more appropriate for children. It’s not always the first Sunday of the month, but depends when festivals fall, so keep an eye on our publicity for further events.
FAMILY FUN – There will be other opportunities to socialise with other families – perhaps games afternoons, walks etc. If you have ideas, or would be happy to lead on something, please get in touch.
