Our Sunday School

Our Sunday School is currently small, but we aim to pass on the Good News to the children we have. The children start the service with us and leave to take their classes in our hall the 1^st hymn, usually about 10:10am. We have two (2) classes at present, one for Grades 3 - 4 and the other for Grades 5- 7.
On the 1^st Sunday morning of the each month (except when the new term is the 1^st Sunday) the Sunday School is in church and a part of the morning service.
