How is Awana
structured?
Each
night of Awana is made up of three equally important segments:
- Handbook Time
- Council Time
- Game Time.
In Handbook time clubbers share the sections of their handbooks they have
memorized since the previous club meeting. They will be in small groups or
singly saying their sections and verses to a “listener”.
During Council Time clubbers learn Bible stories and hear a presentation of
the Gospel
Game Time allows the kids to play organized games, learning discipline values,
team cooperation and good sportsmanship.
Parents are always welcome to join and observe their child at Awana.
Children are expected to:
- Be on time.
- Be in uniform.
- Bring Handbook, Bible and dues ($0.50 per week for Awana
Year 2009 - 2010).
- Come prepared to say verses or sections from their handbook.
- Say all section parts, in one continuous recitation, word perfect. (For
example, if a section requires recitation of
two verses, both verses must be recited from memory without stopping to study
the second verse.).
- Only two helps per section. Helps consist of three words or less.
- Children may say from two (2) to five (5) sections per night.
- Clubbers must wear tennis or athletic shoes and socks. Bare feet or exposed
toes are not allowed. (Crocs, flip-
flops, sandals, or boots pose a safety hazard on the Game Square.)
Note: Parents please ensure that you child is not ill prior to letting them attend Awana Clubs night. We are not staffed or equipped to handle sick children. We will have to contact you to make arrangements to get your sick child home.
