WHAT IS A U3A
The University of the Third Age is a mutual aid self-help movement - a modern community of scholars and artists, catering primarily for people in the Third Age of their lives.

OUR AIMS
The overall aim of Beaudesert U3A Inc. is to provide the members with both the stimulus of mental and physical activity and the satisfaction of a continuing contribution to society. It will enable them to take up new interests and to extend old ones. It will offer the joy of learning for the sake of learning: it will open up new horizons for them - unrestricted by the requirements of vocation or the desire for qualifications, and it will do so, principally by drawing upon the extensive life experience, skills and energies of the members.

HISTORY OF U3A
The history of U3A and how they operate is on this page.

That’s easy! Just come along to the Beaudesert U3A annual Open Day, to be held from 10 am to 12.30 pm on Friday, January 24 at the RSL club function room in William street.

This is when we assemble many of our tutors and members to explain and demonstrate some of the 20+ activities run by U3A before the new term begins in the week of January 28. You’ll also be offered a free morning tea and plenty of chances to chat with like-minded residents.

(For a run-down on our offerings, check the list on this website Here). The list includes line dancing and mosaics, which are both being offered for you to experience over a number of weeks as part of the Scenic Rim Regional Council’s program, Be Healthy and Active, with no membership fee and only a small weekly contribution for incidentals.

While other activities are open only to members, most tutors are happy if you wish to visit and observe to see if you are interested in that particular class. If you have already decided to join U3A, our treasury team will be on hand at Open Day.

There was a real buzz at our recent Christmas lunch at the Beaudesert RSL, with a record 160+ members and friends enjoying a three-course meal and heaps of raffle and lucky door prizes.

Santa was caught having a quick cuddle with vice president Lise Leatherbarrow (no wonder, behind the beard was her husband John). And our treasurer Helen Atkinson went home with a basket of goodies for being the "best dressed in Christmas theme" from a wide field of contenders.

This was a real test for RSL staff, delivering three courses promptly to the sea of tables, and also for our U3A committee members who were busy helping out at the front door, raffle table, 100 board and with membership renewals.
With Maestro Fechner (our president Andy) in charge, no wonder it all went happily.

We'll be back next year with most of our courses and a couple of new ones, calligraphy and our new travel group. See you then!
