Training
We offer a training course called Building Foundations for adults working with children and young people in churches. We also hold an annual training day called 'Toolbox'. We have also developed a new training course for young people as leaders called: Building Foundations: the next generation. This was launched in 2007.
The course covers topics from Good Practice, Programming, Youth & Children’s Culture to Youth & Children’s Development. If you would like a course to run in your church or area, then please get in touch through the number below.
For information on either of these courses please contact Sarah Cabella on 01634 560024 or via email at keycog@rochester.anglican.org or sarah.cabella@rochester.anglican.org
