Mainly Music
Tuesdays, 10am–12pm during school terms
St James Church Hall, 1 Louisa St, Ranelagh
Mainly Music is a time for young children and their parents or carers to gather, sing songs, rhyme, and play. Children are introduced to music and creativity, and to meeting and playing with others. Morning or afternoon tea is provided, and everyone is welcome.
Each session is run by volunteers from Huon Anglican Church.
For more information, send us a message or call the church office on (03) 6264 2977.
Sunday School
Sundays during the 9.30am service, in school terms
St James, Ranelagh (children move to the church hall next door)
Families begin the service together. After the first song, the children go next door to the church hall for craft, singing, and story time. They usually look at the same Bible passage the adults are hearing in church. Children return to their families before the end of the service, in time for Communion on the weeks we share it.
Children and youth of all ages are welcome to join in.
Prefer to keep your children with you?
That’s fine too! Our child friendly space in the church is set up with books, colouring, and toys, and children are welcome to join in the service as they wish. You can see the space from most seats, or you’re welcome to sit in it with them.
Youth Group
Fridays during school terms, 6:00–8:00 pm
Huon Anglican Connect Centre, 21 Wilmot Road, Huonville
Youth Group is for children and teenagers in Grades 4–10. Whether you come to church regularly or have never been before, everyone is welcome!
A typical Friday night
We kick off with half an hour of hanging out, catching up with friends, and playing games. Then we share dinner together before enjoying more games and activities. We finish the evening in age-appropriate small groups, where we explore the Bible and chat about what we’ve learned.
What we explore
Each week we look at a different Bible story or topic through fun activities, discussions, and questions. There’s always something new to discover, and plenty of opportunities to share your thoughts and ideas.
Through reading the Bible together, we discover who Jesus is, what he has done for us, and what it means to follow him. We encourage young people to ask questions, explore faith, and see how knowing Jesus can make a difference in their everyday lives.
Come along, bring a friend, and join the fun!
Keeping Children Safe
We are committed to providing a safe environment for every child and young person at Huon Anglican Church. Everyone who works with children, in Sunday School, Mainly Music, Youth Group, or anywhere else, holds a current Registration to Work with Vulnerable People (RWVP), as required by State legislation. They have also completed substantial Safe Ministry training and have had their references checked.
If you have any questions about how we keep children safe, please contact us.
