Soma Kids & Creche

Soma Kids have their own time of learning at our Sunday Gatherings about who God is and celebrating Jesus. Our kids ministry engages children with the gospel through stories, song, craft and play. For children aged 2-6.

We also have a creche for children that aren’t dependant on their parents for this time. Creche leaders engage with children through play, song and story. Parents are also welcome to be in this space. For children aged below 2.

Soma Kids and Creche runs during the teaching time of our gathering. We love children to engage as we sing, share and pray as a family.
If you would like your children to participate in either of these ministries, please make sure your child is registered, and signed in each Sunday gathering. You will also need to keep your phone on hand in case your child needs you.

We also have toys in the main gathering space for those children who would like to remain with their parents. Noise is fine!
