We rolled out the red carpet again this week for a very special CU Awards Ceremony that took place on Tuesday 5th May, with over 150 children and young people all poised to receive their Gold Awards for taking part in over 100, 200, 300 etc hours of learning in their own time.

Before the ceremony began there was a marketplace buzzing with some of our fab Learning Destinations, including Razzamataz Theatre Schools, Kip McGrath, Sheffield International Venues, Awesome Walls, Activity Sheffield, Explore Learning Hillsborough and Broomhill Music. Student Ambassadors from Sheffield Hallam were also providing lots of entertainment by encouraging award winners to create minions using their fingerprints! Tempest Photography provided an opportunity for a photo in our special Sheffield CU caps and gowns.

Students from CU secondary schools were presented with their awards along with children and young people who have been collecting credits away from school using their Passport to Learning. We also presented a very special award, our first Gold Fellowship Award (1000 hours) for a CU secondary student! Dominic from Chaucer School was the recipient of this award along with a special goody bag from Sheffield Hallam University.
