Computer Classes

Come along to one of our Computer classes and learn how you can use your computer with more confidence. Learn at your own pace how to:

• save, organise and retrieve files
• search the internet and send an email
• download photos from your camera
• scan a file or program for a virus
• enjoy your computer and what it can do

Classes are held each Tuesday afternoon and Thursday morning. The tutors are there to help each individual whether they are a complete beginner or one who just wants to learn some more.

Craft and Chatter (Get yourself hooked on a good yarn)

On Thursday mornings from 10 am to 12 noon, our Craft and Chatter group keep busy working their way towards the next fete. Some knit, some sew and some crochet some magnificent items but we’d never embroider the truth! All skill levels are welcome and we’re happy to share our techniques and help you pick up a new one. Marjorie, Daphne and the group look forward to meeting you.

Oil painting with Peter

We have a landscape painting class on Wednesday mornings starting at 10 am. It does not matter that you have never painted before or not painted for a while, you will go home with a completed picture. We paint with oil paint on canvas panels. Paints and brushes provided for a moderate cost.

Porcelain Painting

Join this friendly class and try a simple modern or traditional design on a porcelain plate or mug.  All the brushes, paints and mediums are supplied for the first four weeks and the club has a kiln in which we fire our pieces.  You’ll be surprised what you can produce in just a couple of weeks.

 

Russian (U3A)

The members of the Russian Class meet each Friday to practise their language skills.

Social Cards

Each Wednesday from 9.30 am to 3 pm the group meets in the Fraser Room to play cards. This is a friendly, social occasion to relax and enjoy congenial company. One group will be playing Canasta but everyone is welcome to play any other card game – maybe Euchre or Poker – or whatever you enjoy.
