Your U3A needs you!

By Patrick Heaven

Calling all retirees and those in the third age of life: Join your local branch of U3A (University of the 3rd Age) today. Get together with others from all walks of life to enjoy life-long learning opportunities and social opportunities. There are NO assessments, and NO examinations or certificates.

U3A Northern Illawarra, based in Thirroul, is open to anyone in their third stage of life. We host a wide range of physical, social, and educational opportunities in a friendly and supportive atmosphere.

Our wide range of activities are held during school terms – see our “Programs” and “Newsletter” pages on our website as detailed below. There is something for everyone: our group activities include physical fitness, philosophy, current affairs, language conversation classes, book club, brain games, to enjoying and discussing movies. Weekly talks by local and invited experts cover the full range of human experience including, for example, travel, health and well-being, science, history, biography, sport and leisure, and creative arts.
