Children’s Ministry
Children are a big part of our church life and we offer a variety of kids programs you can check out below. If you have any questions give us a call on 0480 342 634.
We take our child protection responsibilities very seriously at PAC. All our Leaders have current Working with Children training and we have strict protocols in place to ensure your child’s safety at all times.
Creche
Creche is available at the 9.30am Sunday service for children aged 0 to 4. It is an opportunity for your child to be looked after while you participate in the church service.
Two leaders, who have completed Safe Ministry Training and Working With Children Checks, look after the children each week. They are committed to working with you to ensure your child settles in and has a positive experience.
Kids Connection
Kid’s Connection is our Sunday School program group for boys and girls. It includes a junior class for Pre-school, and two primary school classes for K-2 and Year 3 to 6. The purpose of the groups is to teach children the Bible and so to know Jesus and love other people. They meet every Sunday of the school term during the 9:30am service, starting in church with the adults and heading out after a kids’ spot.
24x7
Our Year 7-8 young people have a special Bible-study group that meet in the church office during 9:30am. They start in church with everyone else, and then head out after the kids’ spot.
9-Alive
Our Year 9’s have their own group that transitions them from kids programs towards being part of regular church life. It includes a three-week cycle, including one week of Bible-study, one of staying in church, and one of serving in a ministry like helping in Kids Connection or on music or tech team in church.
Friday Kids Club
This is a group for boys and girls in infants and primary school. We play games, hear stories from the Bible, and enjoy craft and afternoon tea together each week.
The group meets at church on Fridays between 3:30pm and 5pm, every Friday during the school term.
The cost is $2/child or $20/term payable in cash or by direct deposit.
Playtime
Playtime is a playgroup for children aged 0 to 5 years with their parents/carers. The purpose is to get to know other people with children in the area, to provide social interaction for the children, and to share the Gospel in a non-threatening environment.
The groups meet during school terms in the Church Hall and grounds to enjoy morning tea, stories, craft, play equipment, songs, games, and occasional outings in an informal setting.
We meet on Mondays 10:00am - 12:00pm & Thursdays 9:30am-11:30am.
To help cover costs, we do charge:
$6 per term – Membership fee / Toy levy
$2 per child, per day attending. Max. $5 per day, per family.
