Toddler Group: Mondays & Thursdays

During term time, the Toddler Group usually meets in the Church Hall on Mondays and Thursdays from 9.30am to 11.30am. It is currently on holiday and resumes on Monday 18th August.

However, we are having three Summer Special Sessions for children up to age 6 in our church family and toddler group. 9.30am-11.30am. Fun play, craft activities and hearing stories that Jesus told:

Thur 10th July  The Lost Sheep
Mon  21st July  The Good Samaritan
Thur  7th  Aug  The Two House Builders

(All children must be accompanied by an adult, who is responsible for their own child/children at all times.) For further information, please email becky@stpetersedinburgh.org

About the term-time Toddler Group;

It is for those who are at home with children aged 0-3. All Mums, Dads, Grandparents and Carers are very welcome to bring their little ones to these International and very friendly groups!

Snacks for children include fresh fruit and juice, with tea and fresh coffee for adults.

The cost is £1 per family for each session attended.

Information about the Toddler Group:

  • The Toddler Group is currently managed by our Rector, Rev Nick Wills and Rev Ruth Green. The group is supported by volunteers from the Church, including Ann, together with Becky, our Children’s and Young People’s Worker who is also sometimes there.
  • Changes in our Church Privacy Policy requires us to ask parents/guardians to complete a GDPR form if they wish to attend the Toddler Group. (This is Data Protection.)
  • All children must be accompanied by an adult, who is responsible for their own child/children at all times.

We ask you to:

  • Complete a simple form when you first attend Toddlers.
  • Sign in when you arrive at each session so we know how many adults and children are present. 

We look forward to seeing you!
