Leading little ones to god

Leading Little Ones to God was initiated some 16 years ago by a few expatriate mothers in our parish, as a fun Bible story-telling, craft and activity session for pre-school children.

Over the years, it has evolved under the stewardship of several different volunteer teams and undergone many changes. However it remains grounded in the beliefs that young children enjoy a joyful relationship with God and that the pre-school child learns in a different way from his or her older sibling. Our main objective is thus 'echoing our faith' in a fun and joyful way for our young children.

Lessons are drawn from appropriate Catholic faith formation programmes and incorporate interactive story-telling, action songs, games, role-play, and art & craft activities. These are seamlessly merged into a curriculum which celebrates important events and catechetical milestones in the liturgical calendar.

The programme ministers to 5 and 6 year old children (in K1 and K2 in the current year). Classes are held on Sunday mornings between 10 am and 11 am, at the St Ignatius Hall Annexe, Room 02-04.
