Rooms and Descriptions.
The Sanctuary. The sanctuary can be used for small group presentations like our Men's Breakfast or it can accommodate larger groups (up to 400 people) for musicals or dramatic performances. Volunteers in the sound room control the audio and we have the capability to project images (movies, power-point, slide presentations) on to a large screen. The acoustics are therefore very good. Seating is in pews and when necessary we can set up chairs in the Gathering Place to accommodate overflow in the sanctuary.
The Gathering Place. The Gathering Place adjoins the sanctuary and is ideal for private services. Doors separating the sanctuary from the Gathering Place may be closed to provide for privacy, and a kitchenette allows for refreshments. Chairs and tables can be set up to accommodate approximately 25 people.
Tuck Library. The Library is tastefully decorated and a comfortable area especially suitable for meetings involving 7-10 people.
Peart Hall. Peart Hall is especially suitable for gatherings involving the preparation and serving of food, although our badminton club also makes good use of the area. Guests are invited to make use of the kitchen or hire a caterer for the purpose. Tables and chairs can be set up to accommodate approximately 300 people. There is also a stage at the end of the hall suitable for small-scale productions.
The Kitchen. The kitchen adjoins Peart Hall and is well equipped (refrigerator, electric stove, sinks, microwave, dishwasher) to serve meals. We have plenty of counter space and storage. We can also provide dishes, and utensils.
Campbell Room. The Campbell Room is located behind the kitchen and is therefore multi functional. It can be used as a meeting area or it can be set up as a reception area. It can comfortably seat 20-30 people.
Fellowship Hall Fellowship Hall is used primarily for recreational purposes and is used during the week by the cubs/beavers and children from our Pre-School. It is located in the basement area of the church and is easily accessible using our elevator.
