ABOUT ADVENTURERS

Our Church runs Adventurers, which is a Christian activity-based program for children aged 4 to 9 years old. It is a family-based program, run by volunteers and is designed to support parents/caregivers and provide Bible-based learning and new skills for children.

Adventurers is designed to strengthen parent-child relationships by providing specialized activities tuned into the psychological needs of this age group. This also provides parents opportunities to grow their parenting skills and enjoy special activities with their children.

In Australia all volunteers involved in an Adventurer Club are required to follow safety procedures such as Working with Children Checks and AdSafe training to provide a safe place for children.

WHAT HAPPENS AT ADVENTURERS?

A club meeting will include a variety of activities and may be held either at an indoor location or at an outdoor location. Our meetings are generally held in conjunction with our Pathfinder Club.

Each meeting starts with a worship program which includes the reciting of The Adventure Pledge and Law, singing of the Adventurer songs along with some other songs, prayer and a short talk focused on one of the key aspects of the Adventurer Law.

After the worship, Adventurers split into their classes for activity-based progressive age-appropriate classes. There is a series of six classes, one for each year from ages 4 to 9. In their classes, Adventurers also earn badges known as awards. The awards cover a wide range of interesting topics including Bible, arts and crafts, nature awareness, community awareness, home skills, health, recreational skills and personal development.

Parents are encouraged to join with their children through worship, class and combined activities as a way of strengthening and building relationships.
