Queensland Seniors Month is celebrated from 1 to 31 October each year.

Seniors Month is about celebrating the valuable contributions that seniors make to our city as well as encouraging community connections and participation.

During the month-long celebration there are opportunities for everyone to connect through free or low-cost activities offered across the city.

It’s the perfect time to enjoy what the Gold Coast has to offer, meet people and try something new.

The Annual General Meeting will be held on 22 May 2024 at 11.30 at the Tugun Community Hall.
All positions on the Management Committee will be vacated and members are invited to nominate for a position. Nominations forms (including Life Membership) are available to download here.

Our committee and volunteers got to know each other at a get together at the Palm Beach Currumbin Sports Club on 9 April.

Thank you to our volunteers and committee, past present and future. Without you our U3A could not exist.

Classes have now started for 2024. We are looking forward to a year of first-rate courses and activities capably organised by our Program Manager, Meg Johnson, and ably delivered by our volunteer tutors. The social and events committees are also planning their usual range of fun activities with some added extra attractions.

Despite our very full 2024 program and the many talented and interesting people involved in U3A SGC we are always looking for new initiatives to offer our members. If you have any skills to contribute or if you have some time you can contribute for classes or events I would really appreciate your involvement and I feel sure that our members would benefit from what you could offer.

As the year progresses and as part of our commitment to continually improving our services we would welcome your feedback, both pats on the back and constructive criticism. It is only through understanding our members’ views and needs that we can continue to be a relevant and dynamic organisation.
​
I wish you well and I hope you all enjoy a healthy, happy and fun year with us.

​Vicki Harvie
​President

Classes start on Monday 5 February so if you still haven’t renewed your membership or enrolled in classes now is the time to do it. Some classes are already full and others are filling fast.

To help you select your classes we invite all new and renewing members to come along to our information days on Wednesday 24th and Tuesday 30th January from 9:00am to midday at 4 Boyd Street Tugun. The information days will provide an opportunity to meet and talk with your tutors and provide help with renewing your membership.
