Kids FAQs

We’ve put together some frequently asked questions to help you know what’s happening in Kids and how things work!

  • At GS St Luke’s and GS South, Gas Street Kids runs at the 10:30AM gathering. At GS Central and GS Longbridge, Gas Street Kids runs at the 11AM gathering. At all locations, kids start off with their families for worship altogether, before heading into groups. Each week we’ll look at a different story or theme in the Bible, and unpack it together, through games, stories and craft. We’ll also have times of prayer and worship, and lots of play too!

  • Please register your kids at Kids Reg when you arrive, sign your kids in, and give them their stickers, as well as show you where to go.

    Registration Open:
    Central (11AM) — 10:45AM-11:15AM
    St Luke’s (10:30AM) — 10:15AM-10:45AM
    South (10:30AM) — 10:10AM-10:40AM

  • We let families know about the content we’re looking at in Kids via email. To receive these emails you simply need to sign up for ChurchSuite and make sure your kids are registered on there too. We’re also on Instagram @gasstreetkids

  • No, just come along! Spaces are first come first served on a Sunday morning. Occasionally, if we’re really busy or low on Kids Team, then we may have to cap the groups on Sunday but we do everything we can to avoid this happening!

  • We have capacities on our group sizes and ratios, in line with the Church of England’s guidance that we have to work within to help keep everyone safe. It means everyone can have the best, and safest, time!

    Preschool (1 year olds) - 1:3 ratio
    Preschool (2 and 3 year olds) - 1:4 ratio
    Reception, Year 1, 2 and 3 - 1:6 ratio
    Year 4, 5 and 6 - 1:8 ratio

  • If your child is unwell, we would ask you to stay at home for that week, to help us keep everyone safe and healthy. Children with diarrhoea and / or vomiting should not come along until at least 48 hours after their symptoms have gone. We also need you to stay home if you, your child, or anyone in your household feels unwell, or shows any symptoms of or similar to COVID-19.

  • Your kids are more than welcome to stay and be a part of the gathering, but if your child is unsettled or you want some space for them at all sites we have spaces you can go. At Central this is in the Cafe and at St Luke’s, South and Longbridge this is at the back of the gathering.

  • Our fantastic Gas Street Kids Team! All of our team have been through our safer recruitment process, safeguarding training and have enhanced DBS checks so you’re in safe hands.

  • As little as possible, please! We’ll provide drinks and biscuits, and we have loads of toys & activities. Please don’t send your kids in with their own toys or devices – we don’t want them to get lost!

  • If your child needs a nappy change during the gathering, we will come and get you to do that. If your child is currently potty training, please let us know on arrival, and we’ll try to ensure there are no accidents. We have a number of toilets available to the kids, and they will be assisted as appropriate.

  • We want to provide an environment where every child can encounter Jesus and explore faith, whatever their needs. Please get in touch with us if you need more information. We would love to meet you and your kids, and make sure they get the best support.

  • Absolutely! We are always looking for people to come alongside the kids! To register your interest and for more info click here.

  • If you have any other questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us at kids@gasstreet.church - we’d love to chat!
