Sunday School
Sunday School, which is for all primary school-going children meets in St. Francis’ School during most morning services in Newcastle Church (check the link to PINS for details). After the opening hymn in church, we move across to the School for our ‘Together Time’ when we sing songs, have Birthday Box and lots more. We then divide into 3 classes, with Pamela and Cherith taking junior and senior infants, Lisa and Mary taking first and second class, and Mary and Lorraine taking third to sixth class. We have stories, quizzes, crafts and colouring as we learn from the Bible and explore what it means to follow Jesus. We love to have new children join us even if they are just visiting. All are most welcome, just so long as they are school-going. Preschoolers have a fabulous crèche of their own with zillions of toys to play with during the morning service!
Crèche is available during the service in Newcastle on most Sundays (see PINS).
It is held in the Playroom in the Rectory Cottage where there are plenty of toys
for toddlers and mats for babies. Children can be dropped in there before the
service begins and any preschool children are welcome whether parishioners or
visitors. Muriel Norse and Pauline O'Sullivan run it with the help of a rota of
parents. |
