Kids & Youth
We want every child and young person at Grace Fountain to know they are loved by God, valued by the church, and growing in faith. Our children's and youth spaces are designed to be safe, engaging, and full of encouragement, led by teams who are passionate about the next generation.
We believe in a children's and youth ministry that is relational and value-driven. Our young people are not the church of tomorrow — they are the church of today. Their values, opinions, and gifts are essential to the life and success of this community. We are dedicated to nurturing every young person spiritually, physically, emotionally, and socially, and to empowering them to take responsibility for their own faith.
Three spaces for every age
Crèche
Play, care, songs, and gentle introductions to the love of Jesus during the Sunday service.
SundayZone
Age-appropriate teaching, activities, and friendships while parents worship.
Youth Alive
Real questions, bold faith, and community during the Sunday service and beyond.
The details
Ages: 2 to 5
A warm, nurturing space for younger children during the Sunday service. Little ones enjoy a play-based programme that encourages self-expression and introduces the love of Jesus through engaging songs and interactive activities — while parents can fully engage in the service, knowing their children are well cared for.
Practical details
Check-in begins at 10:00 am for the morning service.
SundayZone
Ages: 6 to 12
SundayZone runs during the Sunday service, giving children their own space to learn God's Word, build friendships, and grow in faith through age-appropriate teaching and activities. We immerse children in the love of God and instil Christian values through engaging teaching, open discussion, and creative activities that reinforce their understanding.
Practical details
Check-in begins at 10:00 am.
Youth Alive
Ages: 13 to 18
Youth Alive is a space for young people to encounter God, ask real questions, build community, and grow into bold faith. Young people need a church community that believes in them now, not later.

First visit checklist
If you are bringing your children for the first time, our team will meet you at check-in, walk you through the registration process, and make sure you know exactly where to go. We will need your family's names, your children's dates of birth, a contact phone number, and any special instructions including allergies or medical conditions. This information helps us ensure your children are safe and well cared for.
All team members working with children and young people are DBS-checked and trained in safeguarding.
