Little Fish Fun Club. The Little Fish Fun Club is a Christian Holiday Club for 6-12 year olds which meets every school holiday. We look at Biblical themes in a fun way using drama, dance, storytelling and art and crafts.
The Colwinston with Llysworney and Llandow Parochial Church Council runs the Little Fish Fun Club. All children who live within the parishes of Colwinston with Llysworney and Llandow are invited to take part and they do not have to be churchgoers in order to attend the various sessions.
Volunteer helpers are found from within the three communities and enjoy the team spirit that taking part engenders.
Children also prepare and take part in the family services in the churches. These monthly services, whilst led by the vicar, are planned by the children themselves. Positive interaction is the keynote. The commitment of the team rector is evident in his praise for the efforts of the Little Fish Fun Club.
If you are interested in your child/children attending Little Fish, please contact Diane Bluck.
