Children + families at Southside

We are an intergenerational church which means people of all ages are intentionally brought together in mutual serving, sharing and learning within the core activities of our church. We welcome and encourage families to participate together in our Sunday gatherings. Each week we include an interactive teaching link prior to the sermon to help everyone connect to the big idea from the sermon bible passage. During the sermon, we run Kid’s Place as an optional teaching time for primary aged children. Kid’s Place is led by a team of volunteer teachers who love Jesus and want to help kids know Jesus and the bible.

Energetic younger kids are welcome to sit and play at the back of the church if sitting in the pew is too difficult. There is also an air conditioned Hush Room for anyone who needs more space and privacy. The service is relayed to the Hush Room so parents/carers can listen.

Communion is held once a month and anyone who knows Jesus is welcome to participate in communion. We believe that parents are the primary disciple makers of their children and acknowledge their role in making the decision about whether their children will take communion.

Small Steps Playgroup

Small Steps playgroup is on every Friday during school terms from 10am. Come along each Friday as we gather with our children (ages 0-Kindy) to build community, make friends and have fun. The children will enjoy toys, a playground and an interactive sing-a-long time. Parents and carers can relax with free barista-made coffee and morning tea served on the patio amongst trees.
