Holiday Sunday School update
May 24, 2024
Holiday Sunday school continues to cater for children who are P5 and under but things are changing a little.
The plan for this Sunday is for craft/play resources to be available in the hall. These can be enjoyed by the children and their accompanying parent/grandparent who will remain in the hall for the duration of holiday Sunday school.
Trusting this will give parents/grandparents a chance to connect with other parents whilst the children play and also give the Sunday school team the opportunity to be in church for the full service.
