SERVICE DETAILS
Anchors...
The core age range for Anchors is from 5 to 8 years, although some local groups start from 4 years old.
We work with boys only.
The Programme
This age group has its own programme based on six areas: Get Active, Get Into the Bible, Get Creative, Get Learning, Get Adventurous and Get Involved. The emphasis is on fun and programme activities include games, crafts, stories and opportunities to learn and share in new experiences. Throughout their time in the Anchor Section, children can gain badges and recognition for their participation in the programme.
ANCHOR BOYS (PRIMARY 2 & 3)
We meet in our Church Halls on Wednesday evenings from 6:15pm - 7:30pm between September and May and provide activities for boys in school years Primary 2 and 3.
WHAT MAIN ACTIVITIES DO WE OFFER?
Our boys learn about Jesus and the bible in a way that is very relevant to the present time and their own lives. The key word at Anchor Boys is FUN. On a typical Wednesday evening we play games, make crafts, learn new songs, do worksheets and puzzles, play football, etc.
Boys only group.
What it costs
Most groups charge a subscription which may be collected weekly, termly or annually and will usually be around £2-£3 per week. This said, we don’t want any child to miss out because of cost, so if you have any concerns about finance please speak to a leader in the local group in confidence about this.
