Are You Looking for Some Fun and Exciting Activities to Do Over the Summer Holidays?

Are you looking for some fun and exciting activities to do over the Summer holidays?

There are lots of fun and exciting activities taking place outside of normal school hours in different places across Sheffield where children and young people can collect learning credits. These credits will be added to the ones children collect in school to earn Children’s University Awards. To collect these credits, they need a Passport to Learning. These cost £2 and are available to purchase at Sheffield libraries and some Learning Destinations. Remember, the credits lead to awards right up to 1000 hours!

 30 credits – Bronze  65 credits – Silver  100 credits – Gold …and at those intervals up to 1000 hours, so 30 awards in total!

Do you have your Children’s University Passport to Learning yet? If the answer is yes, then that’s great news! BUT, to make sure you are awarded the credits you have earned, the Learning Destinations MUST put your details on a register AND send that register into us! If they don’t, we won’t know where you have visited and can’t award your credits.

It might be that their staff are really busy and they’ve forgotten, or they might be new to the organisation and just don’t know that we need the register.

So, every time you visit a Learning Destination, remind them to keep a register AND send it into us! Remember, if there’s no register, it means no credits! They can always contact us for more help and we can visit them to explain the process if we need to.

The great news is that there are loads of you 6,000 running around Sheffield (and beyond) collecting credits in your Passports to Learning! This means that we are busy in the office inputting all the numbers from the registers ready to produce your certificates! They WILL be given to you, but it takes us a little time to write them all so thank you for being patient.

Have a look through this newsletter to see which Learning Destinations have special Summer activities on!* Details of all our Learning Destinations can be found later in this newsletter too or keep visiting our website as this list grows all the time – www.sheffield.gov.uk/CU or email us on [email protected] . If you know of a local club or group, just let us know and we’ll invite them to join CU for FREE! *please note: we advise you contact the Learning Destinations first to check details of events and activities.
