Distinctive: 11-14s
The Distinctive programme nurtures the individual spiritual lives of
11-14s, just when the challenges of peer pressure, school work and family life are impacting you in a real way.
Each morning there’s teaching and small-group discussion, followed by a range of optional activities, including opportunities to go deeper with issues, sport, music, dance or craft. Through friendship, discussion and fun, we’ll help you discover what it means to love and serve God daily.
The afternoons are free-time, so they can enjoy FREE entertainment, from the funfair to
the swimming pool! In the evening, there’s a meeting with worship, teaching, interviews, music, prayer and response, followed by late-night acts including bands, comedians and drama
The Distinctive programme session times are:
- 10am - 11.30am and 12pm-1pm
- In the evening, 6.45 - 8.45pm
