Sunday School consists of one hour classes, held every Sunday morning at 9:15am (except school holidays). They are held in the house attached to the church.
Anyone school age can come to Sunday School, and the older students (young adults) sometimes continue to come even after they have finished school. Students can start Sunday School from about age 4, but some fo the teacher's younger children come, too! Anyone can come, not just students of the church members. Parents are welcome to stay during Sunday School.
Stories and principles from the Holy Bible, about God's plan, creation, the life of Jesus Christ and how we should live as followers of Jesus. We generally use the New King James version of the Bible, and we ensure each student owns a copy. A Bible is given to each student of an age able to read it. Students are encouraged to read and question meaning for themselves, and to ask their parents and teachers. God's love toward all people is clearly seen from the Bible, and all students are encouraged to develop their relationship with God.
Some students come because they told their parents they wanted to come along, other come because their parents want their children to have a solid foundation to a Christian education. Lessons learned in Sunday School lay the groundwork enabling young adults to make important choices in their lives informed by the teaching of Jesus Christ, and God's plan for all people.
Sunday School is free. All costs associated with the running of the Sunday School, books, craft etc are borne by the church. The collection that is taken up from the students, usually a small coin given to them by Mum or Dad, is 100% passed to charity, and is intended to give students a direct link to charitable donation and recipients. These focus on children's charities, mostly Australian, but sometimes overseas. Donations are not compulsory.
