About Mini Vinnies

Mini Vinnies are a worldwide group for primary school children, developed by the St Vincent de Paul Society (SVP).  Mini Vinnies are encouraged to see Christ in themselves and others through prayer, discussion and looking at social issues. 

Mini Vinnies at St Cuthbert's are a group of children who meet regularly with Mrs Vincent-Ellam to learn more about prayer and the importance of putting faith into action. 

Each meeting starts with a prayer, a scripture reading and a reflection on the reading. The Mini Vinnies discuss how they can help others, family, friends, the local community and people in need, particularly our neighbours in developing countries.
