Passport Activity Newsletter Spring 2019 Welcome to our Spring edition of our Sheffield CU Passport Activity Newsletter. In here you’ll find lots of activities taking place across the city in the school holidays – and if your child has a Passport to Learning, they’ll be able to earn CU credits for taking part in all of them! Some of the activities are FREE while some will need to be paid for, and some require booking in advance. We would always recommend contacting the Learning Destination before making a special journey to join them, and you can find contact details of ALL of our Learning Destinations on the table at the back of this newsletter. To collect these credits at these and other activities, children/young people must attend a SHEFFIELD school and they need a Passport to Learning. These cost £3.50 and are available to purchase at Sheffield libraries and some Learning Destinations. The credits lead to awards at these levels… 30 credits – Bronze 65 credits – Silver 100 credits – Gold …and at those intervals up to 1000 hours, so 30 awards in total! REMEMBER: to make sure you are awarded the credits you have earned, the Learning Destinations in Sheffield MUST put your details on a register AND they send that register into us! If they don’t, we won’t know where you have visited and can’t award your credits, so make sure you ask for the CU register! It takes us a little time to input all the credits so thank you for your patience. So, every time you visit a SHEFFIELD Learning Destination, remind them to keep a register AND send it into us! Remember, if there’s no register, it means no credits! If you visit a Learning Destination outside of Sheffield, you need to download a diary sheet from our website (or use the one attached to the back of this newsletter!) and send it in to make sure your credits are counted!
