Classrooms

For your child on Sunday

All children in our Hope Kids classrooms are shown the love of God through our faithful team of volunteers. Our team seeks to illuminate the gospel in ways little ones can understand and respond to. This looks different at every age. What does it look like for your child? Read more on our classrooms below.

Nursery (0 to 3)

Children will see the love of Christ gently modelled through our Hope Kids volunteers, who share God’s Word in a safe, fun environment where they play and learn.

Early Childhood (JK to Grade 1)

Children will discover the biblical foundation of our beliefs as followers of Christ. Through relevant, purposeful, and engaging activities, your child will learn, worship, and explore in small and large groups.

Grade School (Grades 2 to 5)

Students dive into how and why we believe Jesus Christ is the Saviour of the world. Your child will learn about Jesus through the teaching of God’s Word, prayer, worship, and hands-on activities like games and crafts.

Getting to the right classroom

For us to minister to your children, they first need to be able to get to a classroom!

New to Hope Kids?

Please come to our Hope Kids area in the lobby and our team will be happy to help you check-in your children and answer your questions.

Who can attend Hope Kids?

Children from 4 weeks old to Grade 3 are welcome. Classe are divided into Nursery, Preschool, Early Childhood, and Gradeschool. Our Grade 4s and 5s join the main worship services.

What time does Hope Kids start?

Hope Kids runs during the service. Prior to our main service children can be dropped off in their appropriate classrooms with our team of volunteers. After service, children can be picked up with their appropriate checkout tags. We recommend planning to arrive at least 20 minutes prior to the start of the service so that their child is in the classroom on time and you can get a seat in service as well.
