Did you know that each weekend, it takes a team of 75 volunteers to take our kids on an Adventure with God! This is where you come in!
If you're all about being hands-on with kids, we have spots for you! We would love to have you partner with us in Nursery where you can snuggle and love on our babies and toddlers, in Preschool where we get to share God's love through worship and play with our 2 to 5 year old kids and in Grade School where we get to dig deeper in God's word with our Kindergarten through Grade 6 kids.
We also have a need for first friendly faces to meet and greet our families, check in and check out system volunteers, craft preparations and special event planners who make a difference in the lives of kids each week!
If you are thinking of joining our AdventureLand team, please Register Here.
Stay up to date with what AdventureLand has in store!
We are committed to Kid-Targeted Teaching.
We believe that children need to know God through His Word, connect with Him in a personal way and love Him early and a lot! The Bible is the Word of God. Jesus wants to be my Forever Friend. I will follow Jesus. I will talk to Jesus. I will worship Jesus. I will serve Jesus.
We are committed to Kidmunity; doing life as a team.
I am a valued part of Trinity Church. I have friends in AdventureLand. I can bring other friends to AdventureLand. My leaders know me, love me and keep me safe. My leaders connect with my family. My leaders are creative and fun. I can serve others. My leaders give God their best.
We promise to represent Jesus to the children in our care.
We want children to understand that they were created to live for something bigger than themselves, and that they can help change the world through Christ. I can reach out to others. I can give above and beyond. I can make a difference.
From the moment your child is born, we want them to know that they matter to God, and they matter to us.
Our Nursery is designed for little ones! We accommodate babies and toddlers from birth to 24 months, and then work together with our Preschool Department to make the transition into age-graded programming for the next step in your child's spiritual journey. The Nursery is available for children during all Trinity weekend services. Babies and toddlers will be accepted 15 minutes prior to the beginning of the service. When you bring your little one to our Nursery, a staff member or trained volunteer is there to receive your child and to get any instructions from you as the parent. Although every family is assigned a family number, we will also be giving you a pager that directly connects you to the Nursery. We utilize the pagers when a child is not settling or a diaper needs to be changed. Some of your children will stay with us for 10 minutes, and other times, they will let you take in the whole service! We want to partner together with you to care for your little one. Our Nursery is a shared facility as we partner together with the Grins 'n' Giggles Day Care Centre throughout the week. Facilities are cleaned, vacuumed and sanitized prior to the beginning of our weekends. We also feature a private room for families to be utilized by nursing moms with age appropriate toys, a safe playing area with television access to the weekend service. Your life changed when this little one became a part of your family – and to celebrate that, we host Parent and Child Dedication Services two times throughout the year.
We want our preschoolers to experience God's big, big love!
Let's just say, who doesn't want to be a part of our AdventureLand Preschool? There are roller coasters on the wall, caterpillars with moving parts and a room set aside just to worship God!
The Preschool wing is full of laughter, smiles, hugs and a bit of running! When your preschooler joins us, they are separated in color-coded classrooms and start off meeting and greeting their leaders. Our classrooms are designed with preschoolers in mind and feature kitchen centres, reading nooks, trucks and blocks and puzzles.
The next important part of our morning happens when your child will pick up their alphabet animal mat and join us for our Together Time. We worship God, and that's not standing still – and then, together, we learn about God's great, big love from His Word. You can always find a listing of what we are teaching your children, and we want to partner together with you so that the learning continues throughout the rest of your week!
Then, children return to their classrooms for snack time followed by activities and crafts that help to tie the teach to the lives of our little adventurers! We want to make it fun and we want to make it stick.
We are busy upstairs in AdventureLand because that's where you will find our grade schoolers! Our grade school program is designed for Kindergarten – Grade 6 students. We work to separate out our different age groupings so that learning can connect with where our students are at in their lives.
Our weekends in AdventureLand are a combination of small group time and large group teaching designed to connect our kids to God. We challenge them to "Leave a Mark" in their homes, their schools, their community, their world.
Each month, we focus on a virtue that is defined each week with new understandings from God's Word on how to live it out. Your kids will be exposed to characters from God's Word in engaging and challenging ways, they will experience energetic worship and thoughtful questions to make learning relevant to their world. What is our goal? We want your kids to walk away knowing God in a deep, meaningful way that will give them the foundation they need as they move into the middle and high school years.
If your student wants to be part of something big that God is doing, they can join Rock Solid Choir from September to December. Rock Solid Choir is for students in Grades 1 – 6, and then all of AdventureLand joins them and comes together to kick off Christmas here at Trinity. We got to do it big this year – and our kids helped bring 2,200 pairs of shoes to distribute to those in need through our "Souls for Soles" campaign.
Your children are God's gift to you – and our responsibility at Trinity is to keep them safe and secure. In AdventureLand, we have policies and procedures in place to watch over your children when you entrust them into our care.
We will work with screened and trained staff and volunteers.
We work with a program called "Plan to Protect" and work through a 7 step plan to be sure that those who work with our children are screened, trained and ready to do their best for your kids.
Our programs will be thought through with safety and security in mind.
As we plan our weekly program, our special events and our day camps, we think about what we are doing, how we are doing it and what affect that may have on the children in our care.
Our facilities will be thought through with safety and security in mind.
That means we have outlet covers on all the plugs in our nursery and preschool areas. That means we restrict access to some of our hallways while our programs are in session. That means we need families to register with us so that we can be informed and prepared to meet your child's unique needs.
Our registration process will assist us in partnering together with your family.
When you register with us, you get the express pass! We will provide a family number for you so that if we need you as a parent, we can communicate with you in the auditorium that your child needs assistance. We provide you with two parent cards which you will show to pick up your child. You will receive color-coded name tags for each child with their family number on it. Allergies and health concerns are noted on the back of your child's name tag with an asterisk on the front to notify volunteers and staff of the specific health needs. You are responsible to look after your child(ren)'s tags – that way, we don't have to look after 600 tags!
Children are God's gift to you! As you begin this amazing journey together as a family, we want to partner with you as you dedicate yourself and your child to God. At Trinity, we are committed to helping you as parents have the best possible family life together. We consider it a privilege to be able to participate in this dedication of your family. If you are interested in a private dedication service for your family, please Register Here.
Calling all Grade 4's, 5's and 6er's.
Tag, You're It! Not just another game. Be the game!
We're so excited for Gardom Lake Bible Camp to be hanging out with us and bringing their laser tag!
Bring a Toonie, Bring a Friend!
Christmas has been a highlight for us in AdventureLand as we have watched Rock Solid and AdventureLand lead us to worship the birth of our amazing King. We have made the difficult decision to press "pause" on Rock Solid for one year in light of staffing changes and the challenges we had in finding a production that would meet our needs here at Trinity. We appreciate your support with this decision and will keep you informed as we move together into the future. Should you have any questions, you can contact Darcy Smith at dsmith@trinitybaptist.net.
Join in on this fun family event!
