Children and Young People at St. Martin's
Sunday 10.30am
Children join the church family on the first Sunday of each month for an all age service and are involved in the worship activities.
On the second to fifth Sundays the young children leave the Sung Eucharist during the first hymn for their own activities and return for the Peace.
Play bags containing suitable activities are provided to occupy those children who stay in church during the Service.

Busy Bees is a pre-school group that meets in the Sugden Suite from 1.30pm to 3.00pm each Friday in term time.
It is not simply a playgroup but involves structured activities including stories, craft work, singing games, play and sometimes gardening. Mums/Carers are expected to stay and be part of the group. Parties are held at Christmas, Easter and Valentine's Day and children’s birthdays are remembered with a card, gift and cake.
There is no charge but the group aims to be self-funding through sponsored events and coffee mornings etc.
