We meet every Wednesday in church From 5.45pm to 7pm For 7 year olds and over Activities include: singing, crafts, games, and bible stories.
'Jubilate' was formed in September 2005. Since then they have been involved in lots of activities in the church. The children lead the singing at the monthly 'The four o'clock service' and sometimes join the adult choir at Mass on a Sunday morning. In May 2006 some of the older children got their first taste of singing in a Cathedral when they visited Rochester and sang evensong in the Cathedral. In 2008 some of the children joined the East Wickham singers singing in Norwich Cathedral and Southwark Cathedral. The children have their own robes which they wear with pride and work towards the RSCM Voice for life scheme. The children gain points for attendance each week and at services, in games and for singing well. These are then 'spent' at their shop which is open every couple of weeks at the end of their meetings. NEWS 16th December 2009 - Jubilate joined the East Wickham singers for their annual Nine Lessons and Carol. Two of the children sang the first verse of Once in Royal beautifully as a duet. The rest sang The Little Drummer Boy, Little Donkey, Away in a Manger and How far is it to Bethlehem set to music written by Richard Southgate. Hannah became the first of the Jubilate choir to gain her dark blue Voice for Life medal and was presented with it on 13th April 2008 by the Mayor of Bexley at our Sunday Centenary celebrations.
