holiday bible club 2025

welcome explorers!

This autumn half term it’s time for our Holiday Bible Club again, and this year we’ll be digging deep into nature to find a God who cares for and loves all of us - no matter how small we can feel sometimes. Don’t forget your magnifying glass!

From Monday to Thursday (four days this year!) - we’ve got a jam-packed programme of fun and adventure for children in Reception up to Year 6, with our friends from Shady Oaks Baptist Church in Texas flying over to help out again.

The week culminates after pickup on Thursday afternoon in our Magnified! RE<WIND celebration, where we’ll come together with our families to recap the week, hand out prizes and wash down all we’ve learned with party food (and maybe some Texan sweets)!

FAQ:

  • Holiday Bible Club is 100% free - drinks, snacks and food are provided, and there's no charge for the end-of-week RE<WIND either - bring the whole family!

  • No - everybody is welcome! The week will be an opportunity to explore the Christian faith and what the Bible has to say about Jesus for all.

  • The club has been planned and will be run by volunteers from the church who’ve given up their time to put the events on! We’re also being joined by a team of friends from Shady Oaks Baptist Church in Texas, USA.

  • We’ll have trained first aiders on-site all through club just in case. Our regular volunteers have DBS certificates, and the team will be doing Level 1 Safeguarding Training on our prep day.
