The Children’s Department is dedicated to providing a safe and nurturing environment for the children of the seminary community. It is our goal to serve families by offering programs that strive to encourage the children of Southern.
Learn MoreSouthern Childcare offers weekly class times that engage children in whole brain teaching. With the use of “The Gospel Story Curriculum” our trained staff will walk children through God’s Word with engaging activities and creative crafts.
Fitness Child Care has been created to serve parents who are pursuing a healthy lifestyle. Childcare will be offered during select fitness classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays throughout the semester.
Our institution hosts a number of women’s events. Take advantage of all that Southern has to offer by placing your children in our care. Women’s Events include SWI, Koinonia,, Equip, and much more. Like our weekly programs children will be presented with the gospel each time they walk through our doors.
As parents equip themselves to successfully build oneness over a lifetime while in ministry, the Children’s Department will invest in their children by providing games, snacks, and devotionals all centered on God’s Word.
The goal of Bella Ballet is to provide classical ballet & tap classes that offer strong technique and vocabulary while offering a warm, Christ-like atmosphere to teach that ballet is a gift from God and should be used for his glory.
Southern’s aquatics team offers a variety of lessons to encourage a life long love of swimming. Choose from our Baby Swim, Swim Lessons, or for older children, Swim Team. Classes take place throughout the year thanks to our heated pool.
Our Natatorium features a just under junior Olympic sized swimming pool, a spa, a kiddie pool, and an outdoor fountain pool open between Memorial Day and Labor Day.
