INFO REQ'D: Childrens activities in Sheffield - Local to Parson Cross.

Duffer · 12-08-2005, 09:47

I wondered if anyone can help me find childrens play activities such as dancing or gymnastics local to (or within driving distance) to Parson Cross. It would be for 2 girls aged 5 & 7. Also if you know of any karate classes around that area that accepts chilren?

ANY info you guys can provide would be very much appreciated.

Thanks alot!

EDIT. OK, so this wasnt getting much response (any response actually) So I guess there arent many activities in Parsons Cross. But how about just in Sheffield Generally - are there any forumers with children who take their kids out after school??

Sheffield is really good for kids activities at the minute. I don't know Parsons Cross, but the Council does have a sports van which drives around the city which enables kids to rent equipment for free. Hillsborough and Ponds Forge have loads of kids classes, some are studio based like dancing etc. Best bet is to get the Sheffield Telegraph and go through the childrens activity listings, there's loads of council run things and many private companys who use church and schools halls for loads of activities. When enquiring about a class make sure you check who is taking the class and what qualifications they have, as there are some companies out there who are jumping on the bandwagon.
