As a church which has received the Liverpool Diocese ‘Child Friendly Award’, we believe the presence of children is a gift to the church and a reminder that our church is growing. Here at St. Anne’s we have a range of activities for children starting with creche and going right up until they finish primary school and join our youth groups.
On Sunday mornings our groups for children come under the name of Ignite. We have different groups catering for the different age phases.
SPARK (Crèche): for children aged 0-3 Please feel free to make use of this facility at any point during the service. You will find plenty of toys and age appropraite resources. A member of the team is on duty every Sunday, please feel free to leave your child with them. Our aim, is that even at such a young age, we can IGNITE the SPARK of faith, with simple songs, and simple bible stories.
FLAME: For children aged 3-7. This group makes use one of our side rooms, meaning the children are always in church and close to their parents/carers should they need a little support. In this group the children receive age appropriate and interactive teaching. They also have plenty of fun as they learn about Jesus and turn that small spark into a FLAME!
BLAZE: For Children aged 7-11. Making use of St. Margaret’s Sports centre each Sunday. The children enjoy a brilliant time of teaching, with the aim to set their own Christain faith a BLAZE as they learn more about God.
INFERNO: For Children aged 11+. Using the sports centre at St. Margarets each Sunday. The young people enjoy age appropriate teaching looking at themes that help them engage as young Christians in the world today.
