Activities for seniors

Our U3A is a welcoming environment that aims to provide learning opportunities and social interaction for retired and semi-retired members of the community. There is a wide range of classes and activities on offer and presenters are drawn from both outside and within the member group. We run over 70 full year courses – languages, exercise & walking groups, literature & film groups, music courses, art classes, extending your thinking sessions, history groups and travel presentations. These are all led by member tutors. Plus more than 80 short courses each term presented by local, interstate, and international lecturers.

Our program for older people aim to improve health and wellbeing, strengthen friendship networks and reduce isolation and loneliness. We accept referrals from health professionals, family members or self-referral. Booking is required - please contact us to book. This program is only available to My Aged Care recipients, with preference given to local residents of Balwyn and surrounding suburbs. We can also help you get to the Centre and back home safely, simply ask about our Transport Service, available upon request. Contact us to find out more. Runs weekly on Fridays from 10 am to 3 pm.
