Children can begin learning good saving habits from a young age with their own credit union account.
Learn the Value of Money
Saving regularly helps children understand how money works and why it’s important to manage it carefully.
Weekly School Savings
A credit union representative visits participating schools each week to collect children’s savings.
Simple to Join
Joining the Money Club is easy. Just ask the school office or the visiting representative for an application form.
A Savings Card for Every Child
Each child receives a savings card which acts as their membership card and weekly receipt.
Keep Your Existing Account
Children who already have a Core Credit Union account can still take part using their current account number.
Build Good Habits
Saving a small amount each week encourages children to plan ahead and develop responsible habits.
Work Towards Goals
Children can save for things they really want, like toys, games, or hobbies.
Life Skills for the Future
Saving teaches important skills such as planning, budgeting and understanding the value of work.
Members’ Competitions and Raffles
Money Club members can take part in special raffles and competitions each year.
Low Cost to Join
It costs just €1 to open a children’s account with Core Credit Union.
