Sunday mornings
Sunday Mornings from 10:30am
As usual, the children will start with their parents upstairs in church for the first 10 minutes or so of the service. After the children’s song, the following options will be available downstairs for children aged 0-Year 6.
- Children aged 0-3 years old: we will have a supervised crèche set up in the garden room for parents/carers to use.
- Sunday Club for children aged 4 years old to Year 9: will meet in the Undercroft.
Don’t forget to pick your children up promptly from Sunday Club at 12 noon.
Please email our Assistant Minister for Families David Rue if you have any questions about what’s happening on Sunday mornings.

SAFEGUARDING
At St John’s, we take issues of child protection very seriously; as such, all our clubs are overseen by people who have been DBS checked. To see a copy of our child protection policy, visit our documents section, or email the Church Office.
As part of our safeguarding procedures, we also ask the parents or guardians of any under 18s who attend our clubs to complete a separate Parental Declaration Form (PDF) for each child. This ensures that we have the correct information concerning contact details, allergies etc. The online PDF can be found here.
