If you have children, you can pre-register for a group for the 9.30am service here and for the 11.15am service here. Please pre-register before 8am Sunday morning.

Once you have pre-registered, on the morning parents/guardians can collect their stickers from our family hub before the service. You will receive:

• 1 pre-printed sticker per child with their name, group and a personalised number on.

• 2 pick up stickers for parents/guardians with the same number on as their children, to be used to pick up the children from their group after the service.

If you miss the pre-registering period before Sunday, there will be members of team ready in the family hub to register your children for groups and to print all the stickers needed for you on the day. Please arrive 10-15 minutes before the service if you are looking to register your children on the morning, as this will usually take longer.

• Before the Service
  Come to the Family Hub to register or collect your pre-registered stickers for yourself and your children. Then enjoy our free café, get to know others, grab a seat for the beginning of the service with your children!

• Start of Service
  All children will stay in the main service for the first song of sung worship. For the 9:30am service this will be an all-age action song where the children are encouraged to come on stage and to stand at the front of church to join in. For the 11:15am service this will be a regular worship song where children will stay with their parents in their seats.

• Going to Groups
  After the first song in the service, children will go to their group rooms. Please escort your children aged 18 months -4 years to their rooms to check them into their groups. Older children can either walk to rooms/family hub for check in by themselves where they will be greeted by our kids team, or you may escort them if you prefer.
  
  You may not stay in your child’s supervised group unless you have had a DBS check through HTC. Please email Emma (our Children's Pastor) for more details on DBS checks.

• During the Service
  If your child needs to be collected during the service the number on their sticker and on your pick-up sticker will be put on the screen in the main service. If you see their number, please head to your child’s room immediately.

• After the Service
  After the service has finished, please head straight to your child(ren)’s group room or pick-up point to collect them with your sticker.

• When you get home
  Why not ask your child to share what they learnt in their group that morning!? Carrying on the conversation is a great way to disciple your children at home!

• Coming back next week?
  Don’t forget to pre-register for next week to save time Sunday morning.

If you have any more questions regarding kids groups feel free to email Emma, our Children’s Pastor.
