SEYMOUR and District U3A held its enrolment day in December, and their timetables features 18 classes and the introduction of bridge all designed to wrap stimulating activities around their retired or semi-retired senior citizens.

President Irene Telford is keen to expand the range of classes on offer and welcomes new and existing members to join, or to create a course and become a tutor or to share in a leadership role in an area they value.

On playing bridge, Ms Telford said: “I’m eager to learn and will participate in this class myself … as I have never played before.”

On introducing tai chi, the committee is keen to hear from someone who would like to teach that skill.

While most classes are held indoors, there is a weekly “Walk and Wonder” class and the popular luncheon group with Barb Meredith.

Classes begin on Monday, February 2, but there are still many classes with vacancies available to join with new courses introduced in semester two between July and November, and annual membership costs $40 for an individual, or $60 per couple.

The group will hold its AGM next month at the Seymour U3A office, next to the Seymour Sports and Aquatics Centre, also known as Chittick Community Place, on Tuesday, February 10, at 1.30pm. The office is open every Monday from 10am to noon (excluding public holidays).
