Whittlesea U3A Inc
We are again sharing our skills and knowledge with our online service for members of Whittlesea U3A. Our motto is "The Sharing of Skills and Knowledge" and our mission is to "Provide opportunities for all people of the third age to learn, teach, share, make friends and give mutual support regardless of ethnicity, ability or disability in a warm environment.
"Whittlesea U3A Inc."
"What is it?"
Whittlesea is the area we primarily serve, 3 is the third age and U is for University, put it together and you have the Whittlesea University Of The Third Age.
We are a multi cultural volunteer organisation, run and staffed by volunteers from the senior community. All our leaders are volunteers who willingly give of their time and share their particular skills and interests with others.
The "Third Age" is described as the age of active retirement, which comes after the age of work and the age of youth. The term "university" is used with license, as there are no academic requirements for membership, no diplomas and best of all NO EXAMS! We are a self help learning group.
U3A's are to be found all over Australia and the world. Whittlesea U3A Inc is a part of the Victorian U3A network.
We commenced in April 2002 with an enthusiastic committee, 30 members and 10 subjects. We are now in our fifth year and our membership has increased and is increasing daily, as are our list of prospective classes.
Join us and share your skills and knowledge with us.
