PILOTS
Pilots is a national organisation for children and young people. Each week, at St George’s, we offer a range of games, crafts, activities, programmes and opportunities to discover more about Jesus in a fun and relevant way.
We also go on trips, outings and camps from time to time throughout the year.
Pilots is split into four age groups and all of them run on Thursday evenings during term time.
There is a simple T shirt/sweatshirt uniform for the younger two groups. Subs for all groups is £13 per term.
If your child would like to join Pilots, please contact Angela Such on angela.such@sky.com

We recently did a project on The British Isles and played games, tasted foods, did dance and sports and crafts and learnt about the different customs and culture in England, Ireland Scotland and Wales.
The older teenagers went to Spring Harvest at Easter, this was a great holiday held at Butlins in Skegness and we met up with Christians from all over the country and together we learned, worshiped and had fun. We also went swimming and to the fair and in the evenings there were late-night concerts, which were great.
Coming up later in the year we have camps, picnics, outings, BBQ’s and much more for all ages.

A few facts:
+ Pilots is ecumenical, sponsored by the United Reformed Church and the Congregational Federation.
+ Pilots was born out of a great historical 'story'. It's because of this story that Pilots has such a great tradition of affiliation with the world church. This is one of the aspects that make it unique.

How it all began
John Williams was a missionary and with his wife Mary went out to the islands in the South Pacific to take the Christian message. They had a very interesting time and their mission was fraught with danger. John was eventually murdered. In 1936 the London Missionary Society invited children all over the country to save their ship halfpennies and contribute to buying a ship in John's memory so that his work could continue. Several ships were bought in this way and PILOTS came into being.
