We take assemblies in most of the primary, junior and infant schools in Littleover, Blagreaves and Heatherton Area.
Our assemblies are taken using themes and stories from the Bible. We do this through drama, puppets and various other storytelling techniques; we also enjoy singing songs with the children.

Lunch Clubs
These are the clubs, which we do in lunch times in both secondary and primary schools; these clubs give more opportunities to share about God in depth. Lunch Club activities include games, craft, activities and a time to talk more about God.
After School clubs.
After School clubs are similar to lunch clubs, except we do them after school hours.
In Primary school the lunch clubs are named “Bridge the Gap”, the after school club "Light Club"and in secondary schools “Revelation”.
