Three-day Core Training: Ripon College, Cuddesdon

Our three-day accredited courses are led by members of the College of Trainers of Godly Play UK. This training enables you to use the Godly Play method and understand its principles. The training follows an action/reflection model of learning, through hands-on experience and reflection, rather than lectures. A certificate of completion is awarded at the end of the course. Trainers for this course are Brenton Prigge and Judy Yeomans.

This course offers both residential and non-residential options. The venue is Cuddesdon theological college in the Oxfordshire countryside, approximately 8 miles from Oxford City Centre.

The residential cost of £480 includes full board on Saturday and Sunday and breakfast and lunch on Monday. The course times are Day 1: 9.15-6.30; Day 2: 9.00-6.30; Day 3: 9.00-4.30. Closer to the course dates, participants can book dinner, bed and breakfast on the night before the course for an additional £17.
