At St John’s, all our children’s ministry workers and volunteers are trained in Safe Ministry practices. Care of children is close to Jesus’ heart, and close to ours.

Kids Church (KAOS)
Kids Church is KAOS by name and nature. Kids Activities on Sunday has a pre-school group, Years K-2 and Years 3-5. We run KAOS during our 10am service. We also have a TOAST group which meets during our 10am service, for those in Year 6-9.
Bravo
3:30-5pm each Friday afternoon in school terms. We are hoping to be able to collect children from Maroubra Bay Public School at 3pm and walk them up the hill to St Johns for BRAVO. Please indicate if this is a service you would like. At this stage we can't offer this at Maroubra Junction PS but hope to in the future. $10 per Friday or $80 per term.
Kids Club
St John’s Kids Club is a major community event! It happens in the first week of the July school holidays and attracts about 150 kids over the week. Its centrepiece is a fun and gospel-teaching drama, and its outer fringes are found in pieces of craft and crazy games!
