Sheffield CU Festival of Fun 2018
Spotlight on...
For our fourth article this week, highlighting the work of the Learning Destinations delivering our CU Festival of Fun activities, we're shining our Sheffield CU spotlight on...
Sports and physical activity!
Get your skates on!
But if you
don’t have your own, don’t worry, they have some you can borrow! We welcome back the Sheffield Wildcats Roller Hockey Club once again to Festival of Fun, who
will be delivering a session aimed at beginners. The fun, safe activities will help children
become independent and proficient skaters, as well as the basics of
hockey. Equipment will be provided but you’re
welcome to take your own roller skates if you have them.
The Wildcats
can be found at the following session…
·
Monday 30th July, 1.30pm-3.30pm, Concord Sports Centre, Shiregreen Lane,
S5 6AE
·
*PLEASE NOTE: this session
time/date is the CORRECT information and has been revised from those printed in
the Festival of Fun leaflet due to a change after printing.

Martial Arts Taster
Our friends
at Academy of Self Defence are back one again! Their fun
introduction to martial arts will teach children and young people what a
martial art is and how training in one can help them to develop even more
transferable skills. The sessions
includes practical activities but not throws or falls – but if you’re
interested in taking your new learning to the next level, why not join their
club for more sessions throughout the summer and beyond?

Japanese martial art joins the
Festival of Fun
Joining us
for the first time, we welcome Aikido Club Sheffield to the CU Festival of Fun.

session – just for older girls! Join them at their own club for a fun intro
