Planning your October holiday fun?

Do you have your Passport to Learning yet? 


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.

All children and young people have to do is to ask their parents to sign the consent form inside the CU Passport to give permission for the Learning Destination to pass essential information to Sheffield Children’s University (Sheffield City Council). They can then take the Passport to any of the registered CU Learning Destinations across the city such as museums, libraries and local clubs and take part in their learning activities. Participation will be recorded on a register and the hours will contribute to the Awards Certificates sent to them through school. To get your credits, you MUST make sure your name is put on a register at the activity AS WELL AS the stamps in your Passport!!

The latest addition of our Passport to Learning activity newsletter for the October half term holidays can be downloaded here: www.sheffield.gov.uk/cu

On it you will find all the activities happening during the half term holidays where children and young people can collect credits, and learn new and exciting things!
