Training

Over the past decade, the team at Quiz Worx have performed hundreds of live shows to thousands of kids all over Australia. Through this vast experience, they have seen the effectiveness of using creative tools (like puppetry, art, music & drama) to engage and communicate the Good News of Jesus to kids.

Quiz Worx have also seen the need to help equip and train other children’s workers with these creative tools as they seek to minister to children in their own local area.

Quiz Worx have developed a number of training seminars, including:

  • Jelly Bean Jam – Exploring a range of creative tools that can be used in ministries to children.
  • Puppetry – Basic puppetry skills and character development
  • Visual Aids – Teaching how to create visuals to those with limited artistic talent
  • Music Using music and actions to engage with kids, teaching through song
  • Chalk Talks
  • Drama and Storytelling

There are two ways Quiz Worx can provide training:

1. Training Seminar (1-2 hours)

Designed for a local church, those in the congregation who are involved in children’s ministry are encouraged to attend where they will be trained by the Quiz Worx team in 1 or 2 skills.

2. Region-wide Training Day

Primarily organised by a church or team of churches in conjunction with Quiz Worx, children’s workers living within the region are encouraged to attend. The day’s program will provide opportunities to meet with and encourage fellow workers, learn more skills and choose from a range of seminars on offer. These region-wide training days are usually incorporated into the Saturday of a Quiz Worx tour to a specific area.

What people are saying

  • It was a really helpful training session giving students a wide range of ideas for doing children's ministry at their church. The puppets are always great, but it's also good having things that are a little more basic/more manageable for them to be able to reproduce in their own church (eg drawing on butchers paper). Thanks again!

  • Really clear explanation of the gospel message in a visual and verbal way using everyday language. Love the way the Bible is front & centre yet the language is clear and accessible to those who don't usually refer to it. The presentation is well paced and lively, so attention doesn't wander. The Puppet & up-front combination communication was great. Thanks so much!
    Valerie Williams
  • Very positive and upbeat message. The overall message was presented in a way that young children could hold onto a few phrases, which were repeated often. They loved the song.
