Children
Summer Camp for Year 6s and their friends
Year 6s are invited to join Real Food Micro at a brilliant summer camp called Casterton 1 on Saturday 24th July – Saturday 31st July 2010. Do invite your friends along too. Casterton 1 is a fantastic holiday and is a brilliant opportunity to hear more about the message of Jesus for our young people and their friends. Based in a boarding school (but without the teachers), there’s activities (rock-climbing, canoeing, hill walking, kayaking, mountain biking, swimming, archery, drama, dance and more!), sports, crafts, outings and trips, space to relax and loads more.

Annual Events
We have two annual events for our children.
Saturday May 15th 2010
Alive and Kicking is for primary school children (ages 4-11). It's an afternoon of sports (including orienteering, tag rugby, archery, parachute games and traditional sports day) a wide game and a short talk about what Christians believe. With individual winners, and a winning team, there is a medal ceremony, at the end and refreshments for parents.
Booking forms will be available here in due course.

Nativity From Scratch is our annual event for children who are of primary school age. It takes place on a Saturday close to Christmas, where we invite parents to drop their children off early in the afternoon, and return a couple of hours later to watch them perform in their very own Nativity play, explaining the real meaning of Christmas put together from scratch!
The afternoon also includes an invitation to our annual All Age Christmas Carol service the following Sunday morning.

More details will be available here for Nativity From Scratch 2010 in due course.
