We at Holy Saviour's try to provide religious education for children until their early teens. This is done in conjuction with the 10:00am Sunday Family Service, so that the children get used to attending part of the service and their parents can attend the whole service.
From about 31/2 years old, children attend the Junior Sunday School which is held in our Parish Centre at 10:00am. Children have lessons and activities suited to their age and developement and relating to the respective time of the Church year.
At age 7 to 8 children move up to the Senior Sunday School which meets in church and then move out to the vestry after the first hymn and return at the end of the service in time for the communion. Activities are varied and include some discussion on important issues relating to the Church life and year.
