Summer Activities in Sheffield

31 July 2023

Things to do during the summer break here in Sheffield

During the summer many of our students stay in Sheffield to work or are on placement so we just wanted to share some things to do here in our wonderful City.

ok ok the weather isn't great but there are still lots of things to see and do in Sheffield even if the sun doesn't want to make an appearance.

• Sheffield is a vibrant and cultural city with a wonderful range of bars, resturants and things to see and do. Sheffield has a vibrant and much loved art/music scene, since 2014 Sheffield has been painted with Street Art and Grafitti, check out the various locations here, all of which have been done by various different artisits.

• Sheffield is home to many wonderful parks and outdoor spaces to enjoy on those lovely sunny days or even a rainy day, Sheffield's parks and outdoors spaces are beautiful no matter what the weather or time of year and also we are very lucky to live so close to Peak District where you will find many wonderful places to visit and walks to explore right on the doorstep...ok you may need to drive about 15-20 minutes but that's not too bad is it?

                                 Endcliffe Park, S11

• Sheffield has a wide array of art galleries which are great for a rainy day activity or even if you wanted a break from the sunshine/great outdoors, here are a couple of ideas: Weston park Museum, National Emergency Services Museum (pay once and get free entry for a year!), The National Video Game Museum, Millenium Art Gallery located in the heart of the city near the peace gardens and so much more besides.

        

• Are you more of a theatre lover? Thats fine, Sheffield has some wonderful theatres which you may love to visit and here they are: Lyceum Theatre, Crucible Theatre, The Playhouse and The Lantern Theatre. To see whats on at each venue head over to the Sheffield Theatres website here

First week at/back at University!

26 September 2022

How did you first week at/back at University go?

We hope you are settling in well! 

Here are a few tips we hope you find useful when moving/living in a new home away from home:

Creating a homely feel when at University can make a huge difference, but remember homesickness is completely natural.

Whilst you cannot bring friends and family with you there are a few things you can do to help you feel happy and settled in your Student Accommodation.

 choose people to live with who you get on with and share similar interests with

 bring framed photos with you from home to put on your desk

 bringing homes conforts with you such as scentimental items can make a huge difference.

 scented diffusers that remind you of home give a lovely homely feel to student accommodation

But what also may help is having a video call with loved ones when you feel homesick and tell them about your student accommodation and what you may have done the previous week so they feel part of your journey living away from home.

Don't forget we will soon be going live with out 23/24 properties so keep your eyes peeled, why not sign up to be the first to hear about our available properties here!
