Parents and Carers come along with their child/ren for the chance to chat and play in a relaxed environment. Refreshments are available for the adult throughout the session, please feel free to help yourself.

Our Wednesday sessions follow this basic format:
10.00-11.00am Free play - Children learn and play under your supervision, the toys are out and usually there is a table of craft activities too.

11.00am Snack time for the children followed by story and singing time where we all gather to listen to a story and sing a few nursery rhymes and songs.

11.30 end of the Minster Minis main session

After Minster Minis you are very welcome to stay for lunch (e.g. Simple soup with bread and cheese, plus yoghurts and fruit) Some of the team take it in turns to share a ‘Thought for the Day’ and there’s the opportunity to chat to others and pray as we eat. It’s very informal and there’s food for the children plus the toys stay out so children can carry on playing if they finish before the adults! (We aim to cater for all dietary needs so do let us know if you have any.)

12.30 is tidy up time, if you’re able to help put a few toys in boxes that’s great but never worry if you need to dash off.
