Families and Children - St Luke's Battersea

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Children and families are very welcome at St Luke's. We aim to encourage children in their spiritual development and parents in the role they can play to support them.

Survey

We have decided to take this opportunity of having to interrupt our routines to think about how we reshape the future of ministries to children and young people here at St Luke's. We have put together a survey which will only take a few minutes of your time but would help us immensely as we try to make our church a place of welcome for the whole family and a place where your children can grow in the values and beliefs you consider important. Please click for the survey

In the meantime here in summary are the services and activities which St Luke's offers for children and their parents:

Baptism

Click here for more about baptisms at St Luke's.

Tales, Pray & Play

A very informal gathering every Wednesday at 09.30am designed to allow parents and carers of pre-school children to get together in church to hear stories, sing, play and to talk. Toddlers and babies have toys to play with and there is no requirement for them to be quiet! Coffee, tea and cake available. You can double check it's happening by looking at our Events Calendar.

Drop In Playgroup (term-time only)

These groups are sponsored by the church and take place in the Community Hall every Thursday in term time. The playgroup is for pre-school children with parents and carers staying throughout. Click here for more details.

Family Service (back in church)

Every Sunday at 09:00am this service is particularly suitable for families with young children, lasting about 35 minutes. There will sometimes be refreshments and time to meet other families afterwards.

Junior Church

Most Sundays during the 10:30am Parish Eucharist. Children join the service at the beginning and end. Following the opening hymn and a prayer, children may leave to join in the activities int he Community Hall. They come back to join the congregation in time for Holy Communion.

For the very small there are some toys at the back of church.

Junior Choir (currently suspended)

Our large junior choir involves children between 8 and 14 years of age coached by our Junior Choir Director. They sing with the adult choir at the 10:30 Parish Eucharist every Sunday morning and greatly enhance our worship by singing at special services. Click here for more details.

Children and Families - Ascension Balham

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Our mission is to develop kids who feel known and loved by Jesus, through singing, interactive bible stories, games, and, of course, lots of fun - we want church to be the best part of our kids' week!
Please feel free to get in touch with Amanda, our Ordinand and kids team lead, if you would like any more information.

Ascension Bubble Church

SUNDAYS * 9.30aM

Bubble Church is a Sunday church service especially for babies, toddlers, and young families. It's a puppet-packed, Jesus-centred, 30 minute kids and families adventure every Sunday morning! Please book before each session to let us know you're coming and then turn up for a pastry and coffee to kick off.

Sparks

SUNDAYS * 10.30aM (during our MORNING service)

Sparks are the wonderful 0-6s at Ascension, who make up a big and vital part of our church family. Sparks meet up together during our 10.30 Sunday service for lots of exciting activities.

Turn up at 10.30 and you'll be greeted at the door, then grab a pastry and come on over to our kids check in desk where the team will be waiting to say hello! We always start our services with family worship, so bring your dancing shoes. Kids will then go out to Sparks for the best hour of their week.

Blaze

SUNDAYS * 10.30aM (during our MORNING service)

Kids aged 7-11 make up Blaze, and they are in many ways the life and soul of the Ascension party. As well as participating and leading in the wider life of our church, they meet up together during our 10.30 Sunday service to play games, catch up, pray for each other, and get more involved with God. There are always exciting (and slightly crazy) social events coming up for Blaze, so keep your eyes peeled.

Youth Church

SUNDAYS during term time * 3.30pM

Youth Church is our service for young people of secondary school age. We meet every week to play games, get stuck into the Bible, and pray for each other.

If you have any questions, or have a young person who would like to join Youth Church, please get in touch with Philip, our Youth Pastor.

Puppet Praise

TUESDAYS DURING TERM TIME * 10.30AM

Puppet Praise is a time for toddlers and their parents or carers to come together, join in with songs, hear stories from the Bible, pray, and of course meet our puppet friends! We are so pleased that this group won the award for Best Community Group at the 2020 UK Nanny Awards!

Thursday Toddlers

THURSDAYS DURING TERM TIME * 9.30AM

Thursday Toddlers happens at Ascension every week during term time. It is a great opportunity for parents and carers to play with their little ones and meet other adults in a fun and friendly environment. Throughout the morning children can enjoy free play while adults drink tea or coffee and have time to chat. Then everyone comes together to sing songs and hear a Bible story.

Our team is dedicated to making Ascension a safe and welcoming space. Every one of our team of staff and volunteers are DBS checked and trained in safeguarding. This is to ensure the safety, wellbeing, and flourishing of all the children and young people at Ascension.
If you'd like to read or ask more about child safeguarding, please take a look at our safeguarding page.

"Personal data" is any information about a living individual which allows them to be identified from that data (for example a name, photographs, videos, email address, or address). Identification can be by the information alone or in conjunction with any other information. The processing of personal data is governed by the Data Protection Bill/Act 2017 the General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (the "GDPR") and other legislation relating to personal data and rights such as the Human Rights Act 1998.

WHO ARE WE?

This Privacy Notice is provided to you by the Parochial Church Council (PCC) of Ascension Balham Hill which is the data controller for your data.

The Church of England is made up of a number of different organisations and office-holders who work together to deliver the Church's mission in each community. The PCC works together with:

the incumbent of the parish (that is, our Vicar)

the bishops of the Diocese of Southwark

the Diocese of Southwark, which is responsible for the financial and administrative arrangements for the Diocese of Southwark

As the Church is made up of all of these persons and organisations working together, we may need to share personal data we hold with them so that they can carry out their responsibilities to the Church and our community. The organisations referred to above are joint data controllers. This means we are all responsible to you for how we process your data.

Each of the data controllers have their own tasks within the Church and a description of what data is processed and for what purpose is set out in this Privacy Notice. This Privacy Notice is sent to you by the PCC on our own behalf and on behalf of each of these data controllers. In the rest of this Privacy Notice, we use the word "we" to refer to each data controller, as appropriate.

WHAT DATA DO THE DATA CONTROLLERS LISTED ABOVE PROCESS?

They will process some or all of the following where necessary to perform their tasks:

Names, titles, and aliases, photographs

Contact details such as telephone numbers, addresses, and email addresses

Where they are relevant to our mission, or where you provide them to us, we may process demographic information such as gender, age, date of birth, marital status, nationality, education/work histories, academic/professional qualifications, hobbies, family composition, and dependants

Where you make donations or pay for activities such as use of a church hall, financial identifiers such as bank account numbers, payment card numbers, payment/transaction identifiers, policy numbers, and claim numbers

The data we process is likely to constitute sensitive personal data because, as a church, the fact that we process your data at all may be suggestive of your religious beliefs. Where you provide this information, we may also process other categories of sensitive personal data: racial or ethnic origin, sex life, mental and physical health, details of injuries, medication/treatment received, political beliefs, labour union affiliation, genetic data, biometric data, data concerning sexual orientation and criminal records, fines and other similar judicial records.

HOW DO WE PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA?

The data controllers will comply with their legal obligations to keep personal data up to date; to store and destroy it securely; to not collect or retain excessive amounts of data; to keep personal data secure, and to protect personal data from loss, misuse, unauthorised access and disclosure and to ensure that appropriate technical measures are in place to protect personal data.

We use your personal data for some or all of the following purposes:

To enable us to meet all legal and statutory obligations (which include maintaining and publishing our electoral roll in accordance with the Church Representation Rules)

To carry out comprehensive safeguarding procedures (including due diligence and complaints handling) in accordance with best safeguarding practice from time to time with the aim of ensuring that all children and adults-at-risk are provided with safe environments

To minister to you and provide you with pastoral and spiritual care (such as visiting you when you are gravely ill or bereaved) and to organise and perform ecclesiastical services for you, such as baptisms, confirmations, weddings and funerals

To deliver the Church's mission to our community, and to carry out any other voluntary or charitable activities for the benefit of the public as provided for in the constitution and statutory framework of each data controller

To administer the parish, deanery, archdeaconry and diocesan membership records

To fundraise and promote the interests of the Church and charity

To maintain our own accounts and records

To process a donation that you have made (including Gift Aid information)

To seek your views or comments

To notify you of changes to our services, events and role holders

To send you communications which you have requested and that may be of interest to you. These may include information about campaigns, appeals, other fundraising activities

To process a grant or application for a role

To enable us to provide a voluntary service for the benefit of the public in a particular geographical area as specified in our constitution

Our processing also includes the use of CCTV systems for the prevention and prosecution of crime

WHAT IS THE LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING YOUR PERSONAL DATA?

Most of our data is processed because it is necessary for our legitimate interests, or the legitimate interests of a third party (such as another organisation in the Church of England). An example of this would be our safeguarding work to protect children and adults at risk. We will always take into account your interests, rights and freedoms.

Some of our processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation. For example, we are required by the Church Representation Rules to administer and publish the electoral roll, and under Canon Law to announce forthcoming weddings by means of the publication of banns.

We may also process data if it is necessary for the performance of a contract with you, or to take steps to enter into a contract. An example of this would be processing your data in connection with the hire of church facilities.

Religious organisations are also permitted to process information about your religious beliefs to administer membership or contact details.

Where your information is used other than in accordance with one of these legal bases, we will first obtain your consent to that use.

SHARING YOUR PERSONAL DATA

Your personal data will be treated as strictly confidential. It will only be shared with third parties where it is necessary for the performance of our tasks or where you first give us your prior consent. It is likely that we will need to share your data with some or all of the following (but only where necessary):

The appropriate bodies of the Church of England including the other data controllers

Our agents, servants and contractors. For example, we may ask a commercial provider to send out newsletters on our behalf, or to maintain our database software

Other clergy or lay persons nominated or licensed by the bishops of the Diocese of Southwark to support the mission of the Church in our parish. For example, our clergy are supported by our area dean and archdeacon, who may provide confidential mentoring and pastoral support. Assistant or temporary ministers, including curates, deacons, licensed lay ministers, commissioned lay ministers or persons with Bishop's Permissions may participate in our mission in support of our regular clergy

Other persons or organisations operating within the Diocese of Southwark including, where relevant, the Southwark Diocesan Board of Education, Southwark Cathedral and Subsidiary Bodies

There may be other legal entities we share data with within the Church of England who are also data controllers

On occasion, other churches with which we are carrying out joint events or activities

HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL DATA?

We will keep some records permanently if we are legally required to do so. We may keep some other records for an extended period of time. For example, it is current best practice to keep financial records for a minimum period of 7 years to support HMRC audits. In general, we will endeavour to keep data only for as long as we need it. This means that we may delete it when it is no longer needed.

YOUR RIGHTS AND YOUR PERSONAL DATA

You have the following rights with respect to your personal data:

When exercising any of the rights listed below, in order to process your request, we may need to verify your identity for your security. In such cases we will need you to respond with proof of your identity before you can exercise these rights.

1. The right to access information we hold on you

At any point you can contact us to request the information we hold on you as well as why we have that information, who has access to the information and where we obtained the information from. Once we have received your request we will respond within one month.

There are no fees or charges for the first request but additional requests for the same data may be subject to an administrative fee.

2. The right to correct and update the information we hold on you

3. The right to have your information erased

If you feel that we should no longer be using your data or that we are illegally using your data, you can request that we erase the data we hold.

When we receive your request we will confirm whether the data has been deleted or the reason why it cannot be deleted (for example because we need it for our legitimate interests or regulatory purpose(s).

4. The right to object to processing of your data

You have the right to request that we stop processing your data. Upon receiving the request we will contact you and let you know if we are able to comply or if we have legitimate grounds to continue to process your data. Even after you exercise your right to object, we may continue to hold your data to comply with your other rights or to bring or defend legal claims.

5. The right to data portability

6. The right to withdraw your consent to the processing at any time for any processing of data to which consent was sought

7. The right to object to the processing of personal data where applicable

8. The right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office

TRANSFER OF DATA ABROAD

Any electronic personal data transferred to countries or territories outside the EEA will only be placed on systems complying with measures giving equivalent protection of personal rights either through international agreements or contracts approved by the European Union. Our website is also accessible from overseas so on occasion some personal data (for example in a newsletter) may be accessed from overseas.

FURTHER PROCESSING

If we wish to use your personal data for a new purpose, not covered by this Notice, then we will provide you with a new notice explaining this new use prior to commencing the processing and setting out the relevant purposes and processing conditions. Where and whenever necessary, we will seek your prior consent to the new processing.

Join us every Wednesday afternoon from 3.45pm - 5.30pm at Trinity House Clapham, SW4 0BN, to get homework done together, play games and borrow books from our all-age library! Following an hour of quieter time, with educational resources to use and borrow for 3 - 15 year olds, dinner is provided and we sit down to eat together.
