"What a big month November has been"

3/12/2021

 
​What a big month November has been.  Various groups have held `Christmas’ lunches, including a very well organised U3A Wine Appreciation lunch for all U3A members at Chrismont Winery on the 23rd of November with 63 participants.   We missed the company of Heather and Keith Rogers who were unable to attend.  Keith and Heather are retiring as convenors of the Wine Appreciation group after 10 years duty.   John Lloyd, convenor of the Sustainability group, is also retiring after thirteen years as a convenor.  We will acknowledge their participation as convenors at our Annual General Meeting in 2022. 

Another big day out was held by the Garden Appreciation Group.  33 members of this happy group visited Corrie Witlox’s garden for morning tea and a catered lunch was then provided at the McCorkell garden.  We escaped the rain by minutes, both these activities showing us the necessity of looking after our social wellbeing.

The Program for 2022 is taking shape, with a reminder to our members to have your vaccination recorded with your group. The Committee will be looking for some new nominations at the AGM in March 2022, particularly a Publicity Officer.  Don’t be afraid to put your hand up for the Committee, we are a very approachable group. 

Enrolment Day will be on Wednesday 12th January at the Seniors rooms from 9.30 until 12.00.  Enrolment forms can be submitted at Enrolment Day, by post or at the Redb4 bookshop.   There will be a newsletter in January containing all course information that you may need, so keep an eye out for that.   

We thank all our convenors and members for your support and patience during a very difficult period.

Wishing all our members a healthy and safe Christmas and we look forward to a much better 2022.
​
Geraldine McCorkell on behalf of President Dorothy Webber
