Term Three Information
The KOTR team are excited for Term 3 starting on the 25th of July.
This term Pebbles are taking a walk through Genesis with Abraham, and looking at God’s promises. The Stones class are looking at how God looks after us and the lessons are taken from Samuel (see below for weekly details).
The older Rocks group (Years 7-10) meet every other week, this term’s dates are 2nd, 16th and 30th of August and 13th and 27th of September. They follow along with the passage being studied in the main service, currently Philippians, and on the in between weeks join the main service.
Each Sunday we start our Pebbles and Stones classes with a combined worship time in the main hall. If you and your children would like to listen to (and singing along to!) some of these songs at home – here are some very useful links to our Spotify Playlists!

The Classes
Pebbles (Ages 3-6) – Teaching is direct from the scriptures, supported by fun activities, songs and crafts. Classes run every week during term time.
Stones (Ages 6-11, years 2 to 6) – Teaching is direct from the scriptures, supported by fun games, activities and crafts which support the main learning objectives of the session. Classes run every week during term time.
Rocks (years 7-10) – Rocks, our intermediate age class, works on a fortnightly cycle. One week in the service, the next attending a Bible study session during the sermon time, focusing on the same scriptures and topics as the sermon, but in a more relaxed setting with time for questions and discussions.
Caregiver’s Room – We have a caregivers room available every other week (the weeks that The Stones are not using it) , and every week in the school holidays, for those with young children. The room has a live video link of the service and a selection of toys for young children. Toys are available for small children at the back of church. Children are welcome at all times during the service.
We operate our children’s work under the guidelines provided by CCAANZ’s Safe Ministry Blueprint – you can see these here.
