Children's Ministries
Mainly Music
Mainly Music is a great opportunity for parents/guardians to engage with their young children through music. Each week children are encouraged to develop through song, movement and play.
We believe that it's also important to have time to socialise and so after the session we have a time of play and community over morning tea.
Mondays in the School Term
10am- Music session
10:30-11:30am- Morning Tea and play
There are limited spots and you need to register before attending.

Junior Soldiers
Junior Soldiers is a children's program that runs during our 11am church service.
At Box Hill children 7-12 years old can come along and participate in this program that helps teach not just what life following Jesus is about but also how to grow to be world changers in their every day life!
Junior Soldiers is an international program. Below is more information about what it means to be a Junior Soldier in the Salvation Army.
What is a Junior Soldier?
Junior Soldiers are young people aged 7-18 who have made a decision to be a follower of Jesus and who want to grow and express their faith through ministry within the Salvation Army. Junior Soldiers are therefore junior members of The Salvation Army.
The Salvation Army takes seriously the capacity of children to have an authentic relationship with Jesus Christ. This means children are just as capable to participate in the mission of God as adults. Local leaders in The Salvation Army nurture young people on their spiritual journey helping them to develop their faith, their understanding of God, the Bible and the teachings of Jesus and to equip them with skills and values for their everyday living including what they think, say, do and the decisions/choices that they make. Soldiers are challenged to think about the way that they engage with their community and also have the opportunity to participate in special projects that will make a difference in their local or global community.
