    Happy Feet Walkers Monday

    Registration for this event opens on 7 July 2026

    Presenter:  Ineke Kolder-Wicks

    These weekly walks will explore interesting parts of Wagga’s streets, riverside and parkland landscapes. We set out early, meeting at 6.50am for a 7am departure, generally walking for 1 to 1¼ hours and about 5 km in length.

    Walkers will be advised of the starting point and route each week.  Optional coffee afterwards at a local café.

    All walks are suitable for regular walkers and reasonably fit beginners confident of their walking ability. Walks are mostly on urban streets, formed gravel paths and unformed tracks. (NPA Grade 2 walk equivalent; i.e. low to undulating gradient with some loose or uneven ground).  

    Wear sturdy walking shoes. Please bring your U3A lanyard. A hi-vis vest is helpful as some streets do not have footpaths.

    Free registration, but a gold coin is required to attend each session.

    Pickleball at PCYC

    Registration for this event opens on 7 July 2026

    Presenter:  Wendy Taylor

    Note ~ back to Tuesdays

    Pickleball is a mix of tennis, table tennis and badminton.  Pickleball is fun, social and friendly.  It is played with a paddle and using a perforated plastic ball over a tennis-type net on a badminton-sized court.

    By playing pickleball, seniors can improve their balance and coordination, reducing their risk of falls and injuries.  Pickleball can be mentally stimulating because it requires focus, strategy and quick decision making.

    To play pickleball at PCYC, you will need to be a member of the club.  Membership for U3A pickleball players is free.  However, you will be asked to complete a manual membership form available at the front desk of the PCYC (not online) and will then receive a PCYC tag to be used for admission to the club.

    Please wear comfortable enclosed shoes and bring a bottle of water. There is a weekly court fee of $10.00 for Term 3.

    Social Five Hundred Cards

    Registration for this event opens on 7 July 2026

    Presenter: Jenny O'Brien

    This course will provide an opportunity for all interested members to meet socially each week to play Five Hundred. We enjoy the game of 500 cards in groups of 4.

    We can enjoy discussing and developing agreed procedures as we meet. Five hundred beginners are welcome!  Cards will be supplied.

    Simply put, it is fun. Basic knowledge of card games would be beneficial, but guidance will be provided for members wishing to learn to play Five Hundred. By far the best way to learn or expand your knowledge is to play and be guided by others.

    We encourage everyone to join the Rules Club- $5.50 or Pensioner $2.20 yearly - as membership entitles you to a discount on all food and beverage purchases. Afternoon tea can be purchased at the Cafe.

    Registration is free but a gold coin is required to attend each session.

    Table Tennis is a sociable, fun sport for two or four players. Great for hand-eye coordination and flexibility. This is especially important as we age because tasks such as writing and driving a car are dependent on coordination and flexibility! The activity increases heart rate and contributes to good blood circulation. The game is easy to learn; however, players need to be confident of their mobility.

    All equipment is supplied, and the venue is air conditioned. Comfortable clothing and supportive footwear to be worn. Bring a water bottle.

    BBC "Wolf Hall: The Mirror & The Light"

    Registration for this event opens on 7 July 2026

    Presenter: Frank Molloy

    A decade after the initial BBC adaptation of "Wolf Hall" comes a much anticipated second series.

    Principal actors such as Mark Rylance as Cromwell and Damien Lewis as Henry VIII appear in the roles again and are supported by talented newcomers.

    Critical reception was glowing with praise ... "the second series surpasses its acclaimed predecessor" (The New Yorker).

    Our first session, an introduction, will focus on the story so far, a refresher of the first series.  As usual, sessions two to seven include viewing each episode followed by a discussion of the plots, characters, aspects of production and the like.

    *Note ~ there will be a tea/coffee break during the first session.  Bring your own cup if you wish.

    Please bring 2 balls of 8 ply wool, (ideally a light and a dark shade in colours of your choice), a tape measure, 3.25 circular needle 40 cm long, 3.5 circular needle 40cm long and some stitch markers.

    Before the class, knit a swatch of 40 stitches for about 5cm in stocking stitch on 3.5 needles.  Your gauge should be 22 stitches to 10cm.  If you have more stitches than 22, you will need to use a size larger needle and recheck your gauge.  If you have less stitches, you will need to try a size smaller needle.  Bring the needles to the class that give you the right gauge.

    Did Shakespeare really write those plays?

    Registration for this event opens on 27 July 2026

    Presenter: Neryl Quilty

    Did William Shakespeare really write those plays or was it someone else? There have been at least 80 other potential writers, (some quite ridiculous), put forward over the years. It has been suggested that William Shakespeare lacked the education and personal background to have been such a successful writer. Where did his ideas come from? What resources did he have access to? Collaboration between writers, including Shakespeare, was not unusual at the time.

    Popular plays were often rewritten; old stories used and adapted. This talk will explore some of these ideas.

    Participants will gain an insight into the Tibetan refugee experience, the role of civil society in defending human rights and the challenges and opportunities of rebuilding a life in regional Australia.

    Registration for this event opens on 3 August 2026

    Presenter: Jill Ludford

    What shapes a life? Is it careful planning, hard work, or being willing to say "yes" to opportunities?

    Born in Brisbane, Jill Ludford's life journey has taken her from Australia to the USA during the Vietnam War era, through six schools, a teenage jillaroo, nursing and midwifery, raising a family in rural Australia, and ultimately leading one of Australia's largest rural health services.  In this engaging and personal presentation, Jill reflects on the experiences, challenges and opportunities that shaped her life and career.  She shares stories of caring for refugee families, establishing innovative community health programs, building a veterinary practice with her husband, managing hospitals across regional NSW, and serving as CEO of the Murrumbidgee Local Health District until her retirement in 2026.

    More than a career story, this is a reflection on resilience, leadership, adaptability and the lessons learned from embracing change, taking opportunities, and remaining curious throughout life.

    My name is Toni Crimmins and I work from my office in Turvey Park as a Hypnotherapist and Naturopath.

    I became a Naturopath after conquering a severe health crisis, being diagnosed with Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis in 2002. After being given no hope of ever walking again, with the help of my family, we embarked on a series of complimentary treatments which I still practice to this day.  My recovery was considered miraculous and I would love to share simple techniques to improve your health.

    Hypnotherapy is a vital tool I studied while caring for my dear old Dad who suffered with dementia.  I used meditative techniques which proved very helpful on his days of heightened confusion.  Hypnotherapy has become a big part of my business, helping people to improve many facets of their life.  Much to share.

"the American Revolutionary War, Forming a Government, Domesticating a Wilderness, Westward Expansion, Prosperity and Depression, The Promises Fulfilled and the Promises Broken." 

    Due to Cooke's factual and conversational manner, you could well imagine yourself there to witness history in the making!

    There will be some relevant handout material to complement the topics and a break for discussion after each screening.  Due to the the timelines involved, it is planned to carry over into Term 4.

    Registration is free but a gold coin is required to attend the session.

    Days for Girls Australia:

    How a Volunteer Movement is Changing Lives - One Girl at a Time.

    Registration for this event opens on 17 August 2026

    Presenter: Kathy Wallace

    What if a simple sewing project could help keep girls in school, improve health, restore dignity, and create opportunities for women around the world?

    Join Kathy Wallace, Director of "Days for Girls Australia" and Co-Leader of the Wagga Wagga Team, as she shares the story of an extraordinary organisation that is run entirely by volunteers.  Across Australia, more than 1,600 volunteers in over 80 local teams make reusable menstrual health kits and provide education to women and girls who lack access to menstrual products and information.

    Through photographs and personal stories from Australia, Cambodia and Papua New Guinea, Kathy will explain how menstrual health can be a barrier to education, employment and equality, and how Australian volunteers are helping to change that.  Discover how a small team in Wagga Wagga is part of a global movement that is improving lives and breaking down stigma.

    Landfill and Recycling Facilities Tour

    Registration for this event opens on 31 August 2026

    Presenter: Sam Holt

    The tour will begin at the Kurrajong Materials Recovery Facility where we will see how recyclables are separated and processed.  This provides insight into the importance of correct recycling at home and how it directly impacts recovery rates and contamination.

    Then on through the transfer station and Community Recycling Centre, learning how to correctly dispose of problem and hazardous waste.  The tour highlights how separating these materials can allow residents to dispose of them safely and for free.

    Finally, the tour concludes at the Gregadoo Centre, where we will learn how general waste is managed, compacted and contained, alongside the environmental controls in place.  Together, this tour demonstrates Wagga Council's commitment to resource recovery and the vital role the community play.

    Enclosed shoes are essential. A water bottle and snacks are suggested.  All other PPE will be provided. 

    Park on Chaston Street outside Kurrajong Centre, then meet at the sign in office.  A minibus will return you to your vehicle between 1:00 - 1:30pm after the tours are concluded.

    Registration is free but a gold coin is required to attend the session.
