We have an energetic and supportive Sunday School
Staff who love spending time with the children every Sunday. The Staff includes the following: teaching Grades 1-3 are
Lynn van Egmond and Kathy Beigie; teaching Grades 4-8 are Jodie Godwin and Julie Hunter, and our supply teacher is Lynn Lingard.
Our Nursery Staff is Jane Garrett and Mackenzie Hunter. The Staff try to alternate teaching weeks in order to have the
opportunity to attend the church service on their week off.
We
are currently using the David C. Cook Sunday School Teaching material which provides the young people to study a scripture and enjoy
an activity or craft relating to that scripture. We meet all together the last Sunday of the month to celebrate birthdays!
Our Sunday School is very excited to be involved in the Compassion
Outreach Program and we are currently fundraising to keep our financial sponsorship healthy. Christmas time is a very
exciting part of the year because the Sunday School provides a tree to accept clothing donations for "Out of the Cold"
and "Gillian's Place," which are two of the organizations in St. Catharines that support those who need assistance
locally. The children also provide a play or involvement with the Christmas Eve Service during the Festive Season.
The end of the Sunday School Year is a celebration on the last
Sunday of June with awards and a special treat, for example "Sundae Sunday" which they create their own ice cream
sundaes to enjoy. We meet again the second Sunday in September, Rally Day, to welcome everyone back from their busy
summers with a BBQ picnic hosted by the Sunday School Teaching Staff after the service.
Nancy welcomes new families to St. Andrew's and their children to our Sunday School.
