Godly Play is a unique approach to Religious Education that invites children to wonder about themselves, God and the world in a way that is playful and meaningful to them. Godly Play respects the innate spirituality of children and encourages them to use their curiosity and imagination to experience of the mystery of God.

Step 1:

Get ready, take time to look at a familiar sacred story; unpack it, examine it, play with it, wonder about it’s meaning in order to gain a deeper understanding.

Step 2:

Think about the story. Did you have any favourite bits? How did the story make you feel? How does it apply to you today?

Step 3:

Now give your response through art, writing, drama or another medium.

We currently offer the following Godly Play sessions, however if there are others you’d like us to deliver, please ask!

Godly Play is led by trained and accredited Godly Play leaders.
