Child Care Centres

The Parish supports two child-care centres. The centres offer a Christian philosophy within a free-play programme, where children’s interests are nurtured & become the focus of learning. We encourage family, friends, and relatives to join us in promoting cultural events or special occasions when they occur. The children enjoy a special worship service every week and celebrate Christmas with pageants at St Mary's.

Growing Through Grief

The Seasons programme is a 9 week course for children and teens who have experienced grief and loss through death, divorce, separation or other situations that separate them from loved ones. A programme is based at St Mary's on Thursday afternoons every school term. Seasons is also run in schools during school time. Approximately 180 people are involved in Seasons programmes over a year.

The Life Threatening Illness programme is a 4 week course for children and teens with siblings or parents facing such an illness.

The GTG Management group is based at St Mary's and involves volunteers from several Anglican and Methodist parishes in the city. The programmes are lead by paid coordinators.
