SYC meets each Friday night between 08:00 p.m. and 09:30
p.m. during school term time. It is aimed at young people who are
approximately 13 years old and over (Year 8 to Year 11).
The objective of SYC is to give the young people access to the resources
and activities that Bolton Road Methodist Church has to offer. We attempt to
treat all the young people as young adults and give them some space to
express themselves but in return we do expect them to abide by some common
sense rules that are based on respect for others and property. We do have an
entrance fee of £1 per night.
The resources and activities available include:
Youth room with Tuck shop, PCs, PlayStations, Pool Table, Table
Football, Air Football, CD/Radio, Dance Mat.
Sports Hall where activities such as 5-a-side Football, Volley Ball,
Basketball, Indoor Cricket, Table Tennis and other sports have been
played.
Lounge where the young people can just sit and chat.
Access to the church and the drum kit where a small band has formed.
We have done some external trips which have included LaserQuest, Ice
Skating, Canoeing, Walking and Trips to Alton Towers.
We are also willing to consider other resources/activities suggested by
the young people. The activities are generally driven by the numbers and the
wants and needs of the young people who turn up on the night.
All the leaders are friendly and approachable and are happy to talk to
the young people or just listen! We are a church based Youth club and we do
from time to time have Christian speakers and also if any of the young
people want to discuss Christianity, the church, our faith or any other
spiritual matters or personal concerns we are happy to do so or have access
to other resources/groups. |
