CHILDREN & FAMILIES
Children of all ages are very welcome at St Peter's. There are a number of different groups and activities for children and young people which take place during our 10am Sunday service and throughout the week.
St Peter's has a fulltime Children & Families Worker who runs many of these activities and supports families in the Church. You can find out more about Helen and get in touch with her here.
See below for details about what's on.
Sundays at 10am
Tots
Tots (for 0-4s) takes place during our 10am service. We are all together in Church for the first 10 minutes, then we go into the Church Hall for Tots. We enjoy a short, age-appropriate Bible story, some songs, craft and lots of free play. We finish with a song and biscuit before going back into Church for the short remainder of the service. Parents/carers can either stay with their child during Tots or go back into the main service after signing them in at the start.
Sundays at 10am
Junior Church
During our 10am service there is a group for primary school-aged children (roughly 5s-11s) for fun, age-appropriate, interactive Bible teaching. We are all together in Church for the first 10 minutes or so, then the children go through to the Church Hall for Junior Church. They come back into Church for Communion.
Sundays
Baptism & Thanksgiving
At St Peter's we offer two ways of celebrating the arrival of a new baby in the Church: Thanksgiving or Baptism. Click here to find out more about both.
Thursdays, 9.15-11am
First Steps
Pre-schoolers (0-4s) and their carers are welcome every Thursday morning in term time for free play, activities, songs and Bible teaching. Join us from 9.15am until 10:30am for a late breakfast of toast, pancakes and coffee. (Voluntary donation of £2)

School Assemblies & Visits
Rich (St Peter's Vicar) and Helen (Children & Families Worker) are regularly invited by the various Brackley primary schools to take assemblies and lead RE lessons. Schools also come down to the Church to learn more about what goes on and for the occasional service. Brackley Junior School is a Church of England school and has particularly close ties with St Peter's.
