This is the month you have been waiting for – the release of course details for 2027 and enrolment later in the month! Enrolment online is quick and easy, but you need to be registered with Member Wizard first.
In this newsletter, I am delighted to report on how we contributed to the Whitehorse Spring Festival, celebrated awards to Elsie Mutton and Brigitte Ciurleo, and held a Sausage Sizzle for Seniors Month.
In this newsletter you will read about how to enrol in classes for next year and about a class that isn’t in the course booklet. Please take the time to read the enrolling information. If you have any problems, come to the Reception Desk and someone will help you.
If you are coming into the Hub for help with enrolment, remember to wear your name badge and bring your water bottle and your patience as you may need to wait a while.
Don’t forget to put Tuesday 24 November in your diary for our end-of-year concert. This is an opportunity to hear what our musicians have been working on throughout the year. See the programme here. Also, take the time to admire the decorations on the Christmas tree located on Level 1. The tree has once again been decorated by members of the Paper Craft class led by the talented Kitty Wong.
Course Guides for next year, 2027, are now available online or as a printed copy from the U3A Reception Desk. Enrolment day for members is on Monday 23 November from 9 am and for new members on Wednesday 25 November. New members can enrol the same way as members.
Please read the instructions in this article on how to enrol.
Tuesday 24 November, 10 am – 3 pm
Come along and celebrate the end of another wonderful year with a joyful morning and afternoon of music, singing and dancing!
Performances will begin in Studios 1 & 2, then move to the Library area in the afternoon and continue showcasing more U3A talents. See the programme in the full article.
Our 2027 Summer School promises to be an exciting week of learning, entertainment and new experiences, with something to interest everyone.
Whether your interests are history, science, health, psychology, music, food or simply meeting people and trying something new, there is will be plenty to enjoy.
What a glorious sunny day it was! The beautiful weather attracted a big crowd, creating a wonderful atmosphere for this year’s Spring Festival.
U3A kicked off the festivities with our talented Swing Band at the Barry Plant Whitehorse Stage, followed by our Choir, whose beautiful melodies added to the day’s celebrations.
The U3A members’ Sausage Sizzle on Wednesday 28 October was a great success with the generously sized sausages all consumed. While the weather was overcast and discouraged a few members from joining us, the rain luckily held off. See the photo gallery here
A big thank you to our four chefs – Ian Walker, Wilfred D’Mello, Tom Wong, and Sharon Chua – who kept the grill firing and cooked everything to perfection. Special thanks to Lorraine Quattrocchi for the delicious onions.
In this November edition, we invite you to explore an Australian documentary celebrating women and challenging perceptions of ageing; volunteer to help welcome members and visitors at our Reception Desk; and share in an opportunity to participate in a mental health research study conducted by the Royal Melbourne Hospital. We also include a warning about a new WhatsApp scam to watch out for!
And in the lead-up to Christmas, there are reminders that the Hub cafe will still be operating while the Hub is open; the annual Nunawading Christmas market will help you sort your gifts, and the Whitehorse Christmas carol event is on again.
