There’s a lot happening at the moment. Planning for 2024 enrolment is underway as is planning for the 2024 Summer School. Both the Seniors and Spring Festivals, are nearly here where we will be involved in a number of activities. And with the end of Term 3 coming up, our Social Committee is offering another Coffee & Cake event to round off the term.
In this newsletter, we share key dates for 2024 enrolments; request interest from potential 2024 class leaders; list interesting classes that have vacancies in Term 4; provide an update on the Body Scan sessions and announce four Christmas workshops. There’s also a reminder of the Information Session on The Voice Referendum and a link to the State Library of Victoria Referendum Resources.
