Our Youth and Children's Groups

Story Club: Tuesdays 3.15pm to 4.15pm (term time)

Story Club is for primary school age children. We pick up from Bathampton Primary Children after school on Tuesdays. In our time together we share a snack, hear a story, sing together and do crafts. If you’d like more information or for your child to attend do get in touch with our Children's Minister, Rachel Howlett on rachel@stnicholasbathampton.org.uk.

Sunday morning groups:

Currently we run two groups on a Sunday morning. We spend the first 15-20 minutes in church all together before going to our groups for about 40 minutes.

Junior Church is for children aged from 4-10 years old. It's a time for children to have fun, make friends and grow to trust and love Jesus more as they learn about him from God's word through games, Bible stories, crafts and activities.

Youth is for young people aged from 10-16 years old. Most weeks we meet together, drink hot chocolate and explore questions of faith by looking into what the Bible says and discussing together. On the first Sunday of the month we do not meet and our members are encouraged to serve in church (on worship, welcome, tech or refreshment teams or by reading the passage) or help in junior church.

We're always very happy to welcome new members to any of these groups. Please fill in our Contact Us form for more information or do get in touch with our Children's Minister, Rachel Howlett on rachel@stnicholasbathampton.org.uk.

School Visits:

We're keen for everyone to be welcome to visit the church and welcome Bathampton Primary for key events in the year. We also have class visits to fit in with the children’s learning about the Christian faith. Our children’s minister is happy to help with these, do contact her for more on rachel@stnicholasbathampton.org.uk.

Planning your Visit

A Warm Hello

St Nicholas’ Bathampton is a church family to which all are welcome. We meet together to help us to get to know Jesus better, enjoy friendship with each other, and reach out in service to our community. We want to encourage each other to live radically transformed lives of faith and love.

You're very welcome to join us at any of our services. St Nicholas’ meets at the parish church by the canal bridge for our Sunday Service starting at 10:45am. Coffee is served after the service. Junior Church on Sunday is for school-aged children from 4-14 years old. We spend the first 15-20 minutes in church with the adults before going to our groups for about 40 minutes.

The church is also open everyday from 10 am to 3 pm except Mondays and Saturdays for visitors to the Arthur Phillip display and for prayer. Please do contact our church administrator for a special visit on office@stnicholasbathampton.org.uk.

Please do take a look at our Visitor Information Leaflet.

Home Groups

While Sundays are a great way to meet new people, it is often in smaller gatherings that you can really get to know someone. Being part of one of our small groups allows you to make new friends, share together and support each other. We have two groups that meet on a Tuesday or Wednesday. Check out Home Groups to find out more, or we can put you in touch with a home group leader who will be more than happy to invite you along to their group.
