Raising Ethical Children
with
SEEK - Sunday Ethical Education
for Kids
Sunday Ethical Education for Kids (SEEK) is a multi-age (infant on up) program held Sunday mornings at
the same time as the adult presentation.
All children whose parents are attending the adult presentation are welcome. There is no fee.
Each week there is a lesson taught by a rotation of volunteer teachers that relates to one of the
12 Core Values of ethical education.
|
|
Lessons often include stories, discussions, crafts or games. Children regularly attending
SEEK keep a journal where they can draw or write something they learned that day in order to better
process and remember the lesson that was taught.
|
|
Emphasis is placed on helping children learn from one another, develop confidence in their own
abilities and enhance their knowledge of the world and the people in it.
If you have questions about SEEK or would like to become part of the volunteer teaching rotation,
please contact Sunday School Coordinator Liz Reckker.
