YOUNG PEOPLE
At St. Martin's we believe that children and young people are important members of our Church , so they are always welcome
and they play an important part in the life and worship of the Church.
We run our Sunday morning activities for children and young people
at St. Martin's Community Centre just up the road from the Church
but meet together once a month for a family service,
at which many of our young people help lead the worship.
Once a year in June or July we all go away for 24F, usually an overnight stay on Herm or camping at Les Vauxbelets.
A night walk on Herm for YACAs
We also run various groups during the week for different age groups. See below for details.
Roundabout
Roundabout is our pre-school group
led by our Rector Mike and his wife, Emma.
Roundabout meets every Wednesday morning at 10am to 11.15am
for stories, songs, runaround and play.
Each week begins with music with the children playing percussion,
followed by a story and then play.
We have a quiet room for refreshments ( see below) and story reading.
All our toys are brand new and renewed regularly.
Come and join us. It's free too!
Now we have a softplay area too.
