Dynamite is an after school club for children aged 5 - 11.
Family Fun is a monthly activity based service, usually on a Sunday afternoon, for all children up to the age of 12 years, and their parents, grandparents and carers. We start at 3pm in the All Saints' church halls with lots of time for activities and crafts based around the Bible, which the children do with their parents and carers, followed by plenty of lively singing and a story. We end our time together with a tasty snack and refreshments for all. Children take home everything they have made.
We always finish with a story, songs and prayers and sometimes a video. Then there is a lovely tea to all enjoy together.
We look forward to welcoming you to Family Fun. If you have any questions, please email children@sanderstead-parish.org.uk.
Sadly we can't meet at the moment, but we'll be back as soon as we can after the coronavirus crisis is over.
An exciting Summer Holiday Club for children aged 5 -11, took place on 28th - 30th August 2019.

Jigsaw is Sunday School for primary school aged children. Once we're back in church join us at All Saints on 1st, 2nd and 3rd Sundays of the month at 10 am.
The Children's Area at All Saints is located in St Catherine’s Aisle, which is part of the main church. There are toys, books, games and puzzles suitable for babies and older children and a member of our congregation, who has been D & B checked, stays in the Area throughout the service to look after and ensure the safety of the children. Parents are welcome to stay with their children or to come and go during the service. Children can take toys or colouring books from the Children’s Area and sit with their parents if they prefer. There are toilet facilities and a baby changing unit nearby in the vestry.
Our lively and popular Toddler Groups meet in All Saints Halls on Tuesday and Friday mornings at 9.30 am in term time. We'll be back as soon as possible when the coronavirus crisis is over.
