Sydney u3a Semester 2 Course Book

The Semester 2 Course Book is in full production mode at present and will be available to all members from the middle of June. Updates will be included in our monthly newsletters so be sure to read these to stay up to date with everything that is happening in our region.

We have a new President - Lynda Cronshaw!

At our Annual General Meeting held on 6 March our President for the last two years, Kerrie Sanders, stepped down. At the meeting no new President was elected. However, since then new committee member, Lynda Cronshaw, has been ratified as our President.
Lynda has worked in Head Office for a number of years as Office Administrator and Secretary to the Board of Management so comes to Northern Beaches with a wealth of experience of Sydney u3a. We wish Lynda well as she takes on this new role.

We held a successful AGM on 6 March and welcomed three new members to the committee.
Our guest speaker Cindy Broadbent gave an interesting and lively talk ‘QUIRKY TIMES’ - a light-hearted look at the gaffs, bad ideas, and other odd events in recent history which was well received by all members. Thank you Cindy!
