Student Clubs at Holy Family Catholic Church Patchway

Looking for a place where young people can have fun, learn, and serve? Our student clubs are exactly that. They bring together kids and teens from the parish, give them a chance to try new things, and let them share their faith while making friends.

Each club meets once a week after school or on a weekend morning. The schedule is flexible so families can fit it into busy lives. Whether you’re into sports, arts, music, or community service, there’s a group that matches your interests.

What Clubs Are Available?

We run a range of clubs that suit different ages and talents. The Faith‑Friends Club focuses on Bible games and service projects for ages 7‑12. The Creative Kids Club offers painting, drama, and craft workshops for ages 10‑15. For teens who love sport, the Active Youth Team organizes football, basketball, and outdoor hikes.

There’s also a Leadership Circle for older teens who want to plan events, lead prayer groups, or mentor younger members. All clubs are led by volunteer parents or parish staff who keep the environment safe and welcoming.

How to Get Involved

Joining is simple. Just drop by the church office during a service or give us a call. We’ll hand you a sign‑up sheet, tell you the meeting times, and answer any questions about the activities. If you’re a parent, you can also volunteer to help run a club – it’s a great way to stay connected with your child’s group.

We encourage members to bring a snack to share, but we also have a small pantry of healthy treats for those who forget. The clubs are low‑cost, with a modest fee that covers supplies. Financial help is available if needed, so no one misses out.Every club ends each term with a community showcase or service day. The Faith‑Friends Club might set up a food drive, while the Creative Kids Club puts on a mini‑exhibit of artworks. These events let members see the impact of their work and celebrate together.

Our clubs aren’t just about fun; they help young people develop leadership, teamwork, and communication skills. Parents often tell us they see their kids become more confident and responsible after a few months in a club.

Want to know what’s happening next month? Check the notice board in the church hall or the parish bulletin. We list all upcoming club meetings, special outings, and volunteer opportunities.

Remember, the greatest part of any club is the people you meet. Your child will find a supportive community that shares their faith and interests. So why wait? Come to the next meeting, say hello, and start a new adventure with us.

If you have ideas for a new club or want to suggest changes, we’re all ears. The parish council meets quarterly, and we welcome feedback from families. Together we can keep the student clubs fresh, engaging, and true to our mission of service and fellowship.

Ready to join? Stop by Holy Family Catholic Church Patchway this Sunday, speak to the parish secretary, and take the first step toward a vibrant student life in our community.
