At Gold Hill, we run a vibrant programme of activities for under 11s (see below). As well as our weekly programme, we have one-off events such as light parties, holiday clubs and much more – information about these can be found on the notice board and on our Facebook page. It Is our desire to create a community that thrives together and also has lots of fun! Our team makes sure that every child feels safe, valued and welcome. 

Our prayer is that every child experiences the love of God and grows in their relationship with Him in a personal and real way. In every session we run, there is a bible message, whether that be a story at Toddler Praise, a short Bible thought at Hub Night or a more in-depth look in our Sunday morning groups. The Bible is explored in age-appropriate and relevant ways, engaging with different learning styles, to create a space for lifelong learning. 

We want to make sure that our groups are accessible to all. If your child has additional needs, please get in touch with Shona (see below) so we can ensure your child feels safe and comfortable.  

If you have any questions or would like to have a further conversation about what goes on for the under 11s – please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

What Groups do we have going on?

On Sundays during our 10:30 Gathering, we have groups for all different age groups. These all include play, craft, Bible stories and fun together. We have great teams running each of these groups, so you can leave your children in safe hands, but if you want to stay with them for all or part of the time you’re welcome to do that too. Outside of Sundays, we have lots of things going on, as below.
