Kids Church

For children aged 1 year until they finish primary school

Adventure Kids is the dedicated children’s programme at LIFE, designed to help every child discover how deeply loved they are by God and how fun and exciting it is to follow Jesus.

We’re not just creating great Sundays, we’re championing the next generation to know God, love others, and live out their faith boldly in everyday life.

Cubby House

Preschool: 1-4 year olds

Every child is created with wonder and purpose, and in Cubby House, we celebrate that from the very beginning.

Through joyful songs, simple Bible stories, memory verses, and creative crafts, we reinforce three powerful truths: God made me, God loves me, and Jesus wants to be my friend forever. These truths aren’t just lessons, they’re the foundations we’re helping build for a lifetime of knowing God’s love.

Base Camp

Primary School: Years 1-6

The school years are full of energy, growth, and discovery and Base Camp is where kids get to dive into all of it with faith and fun at the centre.

Every Sunday, our kids experience vibrant praise and worship, engaging Bible stories, and creative object lessons that bring God’s Word to life.

What makes Base Camp so special are our small groups, split by school year, where kids can build real friendships, ask big questions, and grow together in knowing God and who He’s created them to be.
