Little Fishes [Rules]
For ages 0 to 4
Thursday, 9:15 – 11:15.
Little Fishes - Rules
Little Fishes is run by members of Hayes Town Chapel whose aim for the group is to provide a friendly environment for both adults and children to meet, while being able to introduce you and your family to simple Bible stories.
Little Fishes is open on Thursdays (Term Time only) from 9:45 to 11:15.
The time is structured into three mini sessions as follows:
- Free time for play and craft where there is tea/coffee/biscuits
- Bible story and songs where children have squash and a biscuit/fruit at roughly 10am
- Push-along play
It's a great opportunity for mums and dads (and grandparents) to bring their children (age 0-4) to a safe, happy and fun environment. We encourage parents to supervise their own children throughout the session to keep everyone safe and happy!
Cost. There's no set fee for Little Fishes - your generous donations are warmly appreciated and help us keep everything running!
Photographs. Photographs of children & adults are taken for display on the notice board. Please tick the relevant box in the child's registration form. Also, if you take any photos or videos please do not share them with others or on social media without the permission of all in the photo or video and their parents/guardians as appropriate.
Specific rules. You agree to take full responsibility for your children during Little Fishes.
