There is usually a crèche provided and we also have an area at the back of the Church for parents with younger children which has books and quiet toys.  On the second Sunday of the month a special activity session is run for pre-school children - we call it Noah's Ark.

There are all age services at the end of each month, often with many of the children participating.

Dunamis

If you are aged 13 - 18 and enjoy chilling out with friends in a relaxed and supportive atmosphere then why not pop along one Tuesday in term time. There is a break for drinks and snacks and short time to think about life, the universe and God.

Normally meets Tuesday evenings at 19:00 - an active mid-week session held each week for the High School and College age group.

Rock Solid

Shanklin Rock Solid is a weekly club that meets on Wednesdays 18:30 - 20:00 for Middle School aged young people.  Run by members of several churches in the Shanklin area in partnership with Isle of Wight Youth For Christ and is one of several Rock Solid clubs on the Island.  The programme includes club nights, special events, small groups, inter-club events with other Rock Solids on the Island and camps/weekends away.

Each club night is crammed full of games, activities, competitions, group work times, videos and a short talk; all unpacking a weekly theme such as self-image, fashion, parents, bullying, etc.

A monthly mid-week session held for the Middle School, High School and College age group where young people can meet for video games, table games, a chat and refreshments.

Holiday Bible Club
organised by
Christians Working Together in Shanklin

Our team has been deeply involved in developing this fun week for children that is held at the start of the summer holidays in July.

The Shanklin Holiday Bible Club is run in July for 5 - 10 year olds, with around 100 local children attending.  It's great fun for all the kids, bringing home the Bible with singing, dancing, drama, crafts, games and fun.

See the Christians Working Together page for details.

Later each year, on 31st October, a reunion to the Holiday Bible Club is held - The Highlight Party.  This is organised as an alternative to Halloween and is very popular amongst Shanklin children.
