​Wednesday

Playgroup
We meet 9.30am – 11am  each Wednesday during school term. More info here.

Grace over Lunch
At 11.30am on Wednesdays the kitchen comes alive as we meet for Grace over Lunch.
It is an unusual name… what is it? It is simply a time when we share time cooking together and learning food from other cultures. Then, we spend time reading the paper and discussing what is happening around us…  and we usually finish with a short devotion time.
This group brings together people and food and customs from so the many cultures around the world!
Come and enjoy the food and laughter!
Cost: gold coin donation

​Thursday

Mainly Music
Meets during school term from 9.45am on Thursdays.

​Friday

Friday is our learning day.
​We begin at 9.30am with 2 classes, learning time and English classes. We are blessed to offer a crèche so that adults may enjoy the learning time without their children.

Learning time – the course may vary each term. We use the Alpha courses that include
  • Parenting children
  • Parenting teenagers
  • The Marriage course
These 3 courses are hosted on DVD by Nicki and Sila Lee and provide simple and easy to understand ideas for us all as we journey through life together and with our families It is also suitable as for those where English is a second language as the courses provide everyone with a course guide and the DVD has subtitles. These courses are most helpful and useful as we share together what it is like to be a family.

Alpha – learning about Jesus… this course introduces us to Jesus! We learn about the Bible and prayer and what is the cross, and who is the Holy Spirit? This course also has subtitles and easy to follow guides each week as we learn and discover about the Christian faith. This course is suitable for everyone, whether you already know Jesus and would like to meet Him soon!
Cost: these courses are free, only cost is for course guides that may need to be purchased. A crèche is also provided.
 
English class
At the same time at learning class we also hold an English class, where people can learn conversational English. There is lots of laughter as we discover how crazy the English language is. Enjoy these classes with an experienced English teacher who continues to make this a time of learning and fun.
Cost: Free                            Creche provided
 
Coffee and Chat
On Friday mornings after our learning time is over (approx 10.30), come and join us or stay on from learning time as we enjoy Coffee and Chat. We enjoy barista made coffee and bakery cakes and share some time together chatting and sharing  together. The toys come out for the children so it is a welcome time for all.
