Children are God's V.I.P.s
They are already members of the church today and will be the leaders of tomorrow. We are seeking to invest the very best we can in our children by providing a safe and fun environment so that they can come to know God better, experience his love for them and discover his purpose for their lives.
Children's groups run each Sunday morning. The children start in the main service with the adults for the time of worship, and then go out to their groups for the rest of the meeting.

The Groups
| 0-4 Tiny Tots |
Leader: Chris Hubbard |
|
Tiny Tots' main aim is to provide a safe, secure and peaceful environment for the children while we introduce them to basic truths about God. Once a child is happy to be left in Tiny Tots without a parent, then parents are able to stay in the main meeting when not taking their turn to help.
|
|
The children in this age range are discovering God and his word for themselves. They enjoy the fun and activities, but also have a simple faith which often allows them to grasp profound biblical truth that adults sometimes struggle with.
|
|
Children in the 7-11 age group love the varied learning activities used to get to know Jesus better, but are also prepared to ‘have a go’ at spiritual activities, such as prophecy and praying for the sick.
|
|
This group will involve wild and wacky games, and a combination of worship, prayer, teaching and encouragement for the youngsters to share their faith. At this age, they are really young adults, and are beginning to exercise their faith through participating in teaching, leading worship, sharing spiritually with each other or leading one of the younger age groups. Some mid-week activities are also organised.
| Child Protection Policy
The safety and security of our children is of utmost importance, and therefore all those who work with children and young people are required to comply with OCC’s Child Protection Policy. This sets minimum adult:child ratios and stipulates that an adult and child are never left alone together. It also involves the completion of an OCC Child Protection Policy form, together with a Disclosure Application Form for the Criminal Records Bureau, which requires the production of references and the checking of identity documents.
