As you know, we will be meeting at our new venue, Parramatta East Public School for the first time this Sunday!
Here are some important details you may like to keep in mind ahead of our first Sunday there:
Entrance
The gate we will be using to enter into the school grounds is the Gaggins Street Gate as shown in the map above. It’s the closest gate to the hall and has good parking around it.
Parking
There is unrestricted parking on Gaggin Street, Symonds Avenue, and Webb St. If there are no more spots available there, there are also a few spots available on Webb Street, Brabyn Street and Albert St. E.
TOILETS
We will have access to toilets within the hall as well as a set of toilets outside on the school grounds (as seen in the map above). We will still be requiring parents to supervise their children when they go to the bathroom as a child protection measure.
SG Kids
There will be a new sign-in routine from this Sunday. Parents will be asked to sign their children in at the door of each room, rather than from one common location. So, please ensure you do this from 9:45am for each of your children.
It will also be important to be respectful of the spaces we’ve been given to use. It will be extremely helpful for the SG Kids workers if parents could have a conversation with children prior to this Sunday, regarding not touching the items in the classroom unless the leaders give them permission to do so.
As always, before and after the service, please keep your children under supervision. This is a much larger area and so you will need to be mindful of that.
PRomotion
A change is a good reason to talk to people and invite people to come to church again. Perhaps you can use this move for that reason too.
Patience
As we make this move, there will be mistakes, delays, and things that are missed. Please be loving, kind and patient with one another, and step in and help where you can!
Prayer
Let’s be praying that God uses this bigger space to reach more people and to make us more mature in Him!
