Education

 

Please join us for the educational opportunities available for children, youth and adults at Vanderbilt Presbyterian Church. 
The nursery
is available for children ages 5 and under for all worship services. 
The Sunday church greeters or ushers can direct you to the specific classroom for the educational opportunity of your choice.

Children and Youth:

Sunday School - Children & Youth  
  September - May, Sundays from 9:15-10:15am
  June - August, Sundays from 10:15 to 11:00am

Our children “Think B.I.G.” each and every Sunday as they discover how God’s love permeates their lives. They hear the old familiar stories in new and exciting ways. Thinking B.I.G. helps our children discover the joy of who God made them to be.

Preschoolers enjoy a warm and caring environment with age-appropriate curriculum just for them! 

K-5th Grades experience faith curriculum in a variety of settings including food, drama, puppetry, art, music, and computer centers.  Children are grouped together by grades and meet in their designated home room.
