Map (Reception to Year 4)
MAP stands for "Making and Praising". Our members are in the school years from Reception to Year 4; younger children are welcome to join in if parents can lend a hand. Older children are encouraged to lend a helping hand.
Meetings are posted
here and are sent out in the Junior Church Newssheet. We generally meet in St Peter and St Paul bell tower at 10am on the second and third Sundays in term time, and occasionally on other Sundays. We also arrange a variety of outings e.g. to a local farm to feed the lambs in the Spring and in the Autumn at Peterley Farm for fruit picking. We often have a theme we follow such as “The Parables” and enjoy a wide variety of related activities including:
-
Treasure hunts
-
Craft
-
Cooking
-
Gardening
-
Games
-
Listening to stories
-
Making and decorating- ranging from kites and cakes to Saint Georges swords and shields!
We hope your children will join us! We cover a wide age range but aim to keep activities fun for both older and younger members of the group. Children come from a variety of local schools and it's a great opportunity to make friends with other children in the community, both boys and girls, that can last into adulthood. In the summer of 2024, a group of previous
Junior Church members met up.
