Children & Youth

Trailblazers

Trailblazers is the children’s group at John Knox and is designed for children aged 4 to 11.

We hope to engage children in church they want to be part of.

They meet every Sunday morning with the rest of the congregation for a praise time before going out for their own activities.

There are games, bible stories, art, crafts and singing and more… all with the emphasis on having lots and lots of fun!

All children must be picked up at the end of the service by their parent/guardian.

We also hold a great summer club towards the end of the school holidays!

H2O

H2O is our youth group for P7+ which meets in the Cottage after the opening praise. Fun games, activities and discussions not to mention lots of hot chocolate, marshmallows and cream!

 

Creche

We also have a creche for babies and toddlers which meets in the small hall during the service.  Parents and carers can leave their children with the creche leaders and go back into the service or they can if they prefer stay with their child.

They can play with toys and they have a short bible story. There are baby changing facilities and children’s safety gates are fitted on the doors leading in and out of the creche room.

All our leaders have been disclosed and have received training in accordance with the Church of Scotland’s Safegaurding procedures.
