Enrolments for current and new members are now open.
If you have problems enrolling online there are a number of resources available on the Membership Instructions & Help page including:
– videos of sections of the webinar ‘How to enrol online’
– downloadable user guides
– enrolment forms if you choose not to enrol online.
Enrolling online is best! But if you can’t enrol online, you can download and complete an enrolment form and bring it to the U3A Nunawading office.
See the Membership Instructions & Help page for instructions on how to enrol (from 21 January 2021) and to download the re-enrolment form.
New members can join from 27 January 2021. The Membership Instructions & Help page has instructions for this too, as well as a New Member Enrolment form if you can’t join online.
So begins another year! I hope that 2021 will be easier than last year for all of us.
One piece of good news is that the new Nunawading Community Hub has been officially open to the public since 6 January.
It is certainly an amazing building with lots of lovely natural light and space – so different from our previous accommodation! We have ample storage space for our equipment, which is more than we had anticipated. It is going to be a pleasure to be in such a lovely environment.
All classes being offered this year are listed on our website at u3anunawading.org.au/courses-activities/
You will be able to enrol from 9am on Thursday 21 January if you were a financial member in 2020.
We are offering two Online Training sessions to show you how to enrol using the new membership system. The sessions are scheduled for:

As there is a limit of 100 people per session, please make sure you join in 10 minutes before the session start.
If you can’t make these times, the sessions will be recorded and you will be able to watch them at your leisure – or remind yourself of the process again.
In this edition of Update, three of our members share their varied experiences of Covid-19 Lockdown.
Class Leader Carl Di Giovine entertains us with his ultimate decision not to travel overseas, Class Leader Jasmine Teen shares her very poignant story of coming to terms with Covid and Member Betty Au tells of mastering technology to stay connected and keeping busy with jobs she had been putting off.
COVID-19 contact tracing requires us all to check-in whenever we are in the Hub.
If we all use the Victorian Government online app to check-in, we can allow greater numbers of members in each class. The alternatives mean we would have to halve these numbers!
So, before you come the first time, please download the app onto your smartphone …
