The Parish has a close relationship with the local primary schools: St Michael’s Church of England Primary School, Kingsteignton School and Rydon Primary School.
St Michael’s Church of England (VC) Primary School hold regular Church Services in St Michael’s Church, including start of year/term assemblies, year group assemblies, to which their parents/carers are invited, leaver’s assembly and Christingle Service. The children lead the services which include songs, Bible stories and prayers, and are linked to the school’s weekly theme. These services are for the children and those invited by the school only.
We also reach out to children in the community through our Messy Church sessions, held in conjunction with the Kingsteignton Baptist Church, and through our Experience program which is offered to our local primary schools. (please note that Messy Church is on hold until the new Vicar takes up their post).
