COVID-19 Updates

Some classes to resume

1/8/2021

Despite the Greater Sydney lockdown being extended for another month, there have been requests for U3A classes to recommence. In response to this groundswell, our hardworking Program Coordinator, Janet, has been busy surveying presenters to find out who is willing to work within the current restrictions in order to bring back some classes. An enormous ‘thank you’ goes to those presenters who are willing to 'give it a go’.
 
In order for this to happen, strict COVID rules must be observed. All participants  MUST WEAR MASKS indoors (if you do not feel comfortable wearing a mask for the duration of the session, please do not attend) and social distancing must take place (one person per 4 sq m). This is on top of the usual check-in requirements and the COVID cleaning after each class.
 
Thus, from Monday 2nd August, the following classes will operate if you are willing to leave the safety of your home: (Pease note that there are some venue changes)
 
Lions Club
Persian Prophets
Calligraphy
Book Group 2 - Thursday 11.30
 
Baptist Church 
Please note that for this venue there are upper and lower limits on some classes. The upper limit is due to social distancing. The lower limit is because this is a venue that we hire and too few people makes it economically unviable.
 
Balance’n’Bones  Max 20 Min 8
Painting with Watercolours Min 10
Line Dancing Max 20 (inside) Min 10 (weather permitting, this group may try operating in the breezeway)
Local History  Min 10
 
Zoom
Current Affairs
Book Group 3
 
Venue closures, social distancing (4 sq m) and mandatory mask wearing make it impossible for some classes to operate. These include Canasta, Mah Jong, First Aid, Floor Yoga, Material Crafts, Book to Movie, Art Group and Sunday Movie Matinee. These will recommence when Regional restrictions are lifted.
 
Again, if you know a U3A member without an email address, please pass on this information about the partial recommencement of classes next Monday.
 
One socially distanced event that is still going ahead is the Mudgee District U3A AGM 10am, Saturday 28th August at the Baptist Church. If you wish to attend, please contact the Secretary, Marianne Matthews (marianne_matthews@bigpond.com, ph 0419 218 648) or send her your proxy vote.
