Welcome to Little Fishes, the Christian pre-school group for babies, pre-school children and their parents and carers at St Mary of Charity parish church. We meet in the south transept of the church each Thursday morning during term time between 10 am and 11.30 am.

Everyone is welcome to join us at Little Fishes.

When you arrive at Little Fishes each week we will ask you to register. If it is the first time you have been you will be asked to complete a short registration form. We take the safety and well-being of the children and all attending very seriously.

The morning follows a loose structure, including playing with toys, craft activity, a time for a drink and snack sometimes sharing a Bible story followed by songs and a prayer together.

We do not make any admission charge, but we do welcome donations towards our group. Your donations pay for materials for our craft activities and for the refreshments.

We really hope your time with us is fun and enjoyable as you get to meet new friends.

We hold Little Fishes during school term time only and so there are no little fishes in the church during half term.

Little Fishes relies on volunteers. Please let us know if you would like to join the team.

We have started a Facebook Group so if you are on Facebook and would like to join please either 'friend' Rebecca Millington, Dennis Parrett or Naomi Smith and we’ll invite you, or find the Little Fishes group and ask to join!  We keep it as a closed group and limit what can be posted but we would like to use it to update people if we can.

Little Fishes' Song:

We are Little Fishes, one two three,
We are Little Fishes, swimming in the sea,
Singing and praying,
Laughing and playing,
Won’t you come along and swim with me?

We are Little Fishes, one two three,
We are Little Fishes, in a family,
Playing together,
Friends forever,
Knowing God loves you and me.

Naomi Smith with her guitar leads our singing so no excuses for forgetting the tune!

Little Fishes' Prayer:

Father God,
Thank you that you care about me,
And give me things to make me happy,
Help me to remember others,
And treat them like my sisters and brothers
In Jesus’ name
Amen
