Sticky Saints is a club for primary school aged children every Monday in term time usually from 4pm and is a space for creativity! All materials provided. Children must attend with an adult, tea/coffee provided. Please book online: https://shorturl.at/xiyUG. There is a suggested donation per session of £2 per child/£5 per family, paid on the day. Younger siblings can be accommodated.
Awake has now finished for the summer, we will look forward to meeting again in September! We will likely organise a few student/young adult get-togethers over the summer for anyone still in St Andrews—please get in touch with Ethan and Tamara if you are interested.
Every summer the churches in St Andrews come together to hold a Holiday Club. This is always a lot of fun involving bible stories, songs, games, crafts and challenges. This year’s holiday club will run in the mornings from Tuesday 12th until Friday 15th August. If you would be interested in volunteering or would like more information please speak to Jenny or email jenny@standrewsbaptist.org.uk.
