Welcome to the CSSU Web site

The CSSU produces resources for Sunday School teachers and Youth Leaders.
It also publishes magazines for children and young people and arranges an Annual Gathering for teachers and youth leaders.

Materials for Sunday Schools and Youth Groups

We have a wide range of materials for many different uses. Our intention is, wherever possible, to put everything online so that anyone who wants to use it in a Sunday School or Youth Group can do so.
Please feel free to download lessons for your own use (but observe the copyright statement).

We also produce printed copies of everything, but we're not a commercial organisation and (sorry) we aren't able to cope with the workload of selling printed books to the world at large.
So ...
If you are a Christadelphian you can order things from this site.  Click here for details.

We are sorry that we can't supply everyone who would like to order printed books from us, but reluctantly we have had to admit that we couldn't cope with all the requests we were getting.

Welcome back! So what's new?

Child Protection

Under recent UK legislation, all regular Sunday School teachers and youth leaders in England and Wales will by law have to have CRB checks and to register with a new body called The Independent Safeguarding Authority. The programme is called the Vetting and Barring Scheme.

On December 13th 2009 the Schools Secretary announced the outcome of a review of the extent of the scheme, essentially who will have to register. The announcement reduces its impact on Sunday Schools and Youth Groups. More details on the 'Frequently Asked Questions' page.

There is an outline of the Vetting and Barring Scheme 'here'.

Hot (well, warmish) off the press

Some recent new publications:

  • The Infant Colouring Book (Year 2) has been updated, with a new cover and improved layout inside. Better than ever!
  • The Senior Lesson Notes. We've combined all four books into one A5 volume.
  • Junior Year 2 Quiz Pack - presentation is even better.
  • Year 1 Junior Worksheets. Ali MacDonald has designed a brilliant new cover.
  • Infant Quiz Pack (Year 1) - we've tidied up the content.
  • Senior Project Pack - Timeline. New cover, even better content!
  • Senior Workbook: The Life of the Master Part 2 - The Life. New cover, improved layout.
  • A new book 'Timescope' for teenagers, written by brother Joe Harding.
  • Junior Year 2 Worksheets - same lively content with a completely new layout.

Reduced price software

The Christadelphian Sunday School Union has been registered as a school with Software4students.co.uk.
The effect of this is that if you are:

  • A Sunday School teacher at a school that uses CSSU lesson materials, or
  • A scholar aged under 18 at one of these schools, or
  • The parent or grandparent of a scholar under 18 years old
  • Living in the UK (sorry, they're not licensed in other countries)
You can purchase software from companies such as Microsoft or Adobe at a much reduced price. Click here for more details.

What are we working on?

  • A new set of lessons for Seniors 'From Beginning to End' which goes through the whole Bible in a Year, links together the things the young people already know and teaches some key lessons. Intended to fit between the existing Senior Lessons and 'The Way of Life'.
  • Putting lessons on-line. It's going to take a few years, God willing, to complete this task, but we've made a start, and you can download some lessons by clicking on Download Lessons.
