    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.

    Please text Wendy on 0408 565 475 to cancel or apologise ~ include your full name.

    Table Tennis

    Registration for this event opens on 7 July 2026

    Presenter:  John Eather

    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.

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

    U.S. History & Alistair Cooke's America

    Registration for this event opens on 10 August 2026

    Presenter: Drew Porter

    First broadcast in 1973, this remains one of the finest documentary series ever made.

"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.

    Presenter:  Wendy Taylor

    PCYC unavailable for 2 sessions.

    Table Tennis

    Registration for this event opens on 29 September 2026

    Presenter:  Fred Delshad

    Table Tennis is a sociable, fun sport for two or four players. 

    It is 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 also 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.

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

The idea is that we sit and chat, tell each other about the books we have read and swap those books for others that the members of our group have enjoyed.

    Coffee and tea is available (at own cost).   Note the change of day for our final session. This frees us up for the U3A Christmas Lunch.

    Presenter: Gordon Hall

    Come along with Gordon & Sandra Hall as we revisit our remarkable half-lap journey around Australia.

    Over 78 days during June, July and August 2026, we travelled 16,804 kilometres in our motorhome, experiencing the enormous diversity of the Australian landscape.

    We’ll take you along for the ride through changing landscapes, remote towns, vast distances and some unforgettable places.  But this journey was about much more than just the scenery.  The presentation also explores some of the extraordinary industries we encountered together with some surprising statistics that demonstrate the remarkable scale of production across our country. This is a chance to sit back and enjoy the journey — without having to drive the 16,804 kilometres!

    Why does the Persian Gulf hold 60% of the world's oil resources? It is in its history and geology.

    Registration for this event opens on 29 September 2026

    Presenter: Tony Dare-Edwards

    The oil and gas deposits of the Persia Gulf region are a significant feature of the world's current energy resources.  The physical size of the oil fields and amount of oil held in the rocks of the Gulf State is amazing. 

    This talk will cover the first discovery and tapping of Persia's oil by British geologists in 1909, which led, in turn, to the development of British Petroleum (BP) and the building if the first oil refineries in the UK.  Then, the remarkable geological history of this region will be explored to account for the formation and concentration of these oil and gas reserves across the Persian Gulf.

    Working with Children's Mental Health

    Registration for this event opens on 12 October 2026

    Presenter: John Dean

    This session will look at the common mental health problems for children and the responses available. 

    The concept of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) has now gained recognition and these experiences can influence a child's mental health and physical health outcomes into adulthood. 

    Interventions in childhood provide an opportunity to start a child on a new path to wellbeing.  These interventions cannot be with the child alone, but must involve the caregiver as well.  The NSW Health Got It! Program is an example of how such an intervention can change the life journey for children and their families.

    Registration for this event opens on 26 October 2026

    Presenter: Gordon Murray

    We will walk through Wagga Wagga Monumental Cemetery and adjacent Commonwealth War Cemetery where simple to elaborate headstones honour people from the early days of European settlement, tragic local losses in the Second World War, to the present day. 

    The site was selected about 1850 because the first cemetery was flood prone.

    Epitaphs on many graves give a picture of life and human insight, including poignant reminders of accidents and epidemics that shortened lives.  It's mostly a Christian place with each denomination having its own space, plus one for Chinese.  The Orthodox section has some elaborate and colourful recent graves. Newer sections are for Muslims, Hazaras and Yazidis to meet their burial customs. 

    Registrants should wear their lanyard, appropriate clothing, comfortable walking shoes, a hat and sunscreen.  Bring your water bottle as water is not available at the site.

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

    Presenter: June Brayne

    This course will very briefly cover some aspects of Neurographic Art, Zentangle, Zen Doodling and a few loose watercolour ideas. You will be encouraged to try these techniques, add some of your own, share with others and relax in a creative environment. We are not trying to produce great works of art, rather learn how to relax in the moment and let our creativity flow, combining different techniques in different ways. 

    You will also be encouraged to commit 15 minutes on as many days as you can to "playing" with your ideas in between U3A sessions.

    A requirements list will be emailed when you enrol. In the meantime, clean out those cupboards to see what art supplies are hidden there.

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

    Where's the Justice?

    Registration for this event opens on 2 November 2026

    Presenter: Bronwyn Boyle 

    What really happens after someone enters the justice system? Drawing on more than 25 years working across courts, prisons, community corrections, parole and custodial review, Bronwyn Boyle offers an insider’s view of how the different parts of Justice connect.

    From courtroom administration and supervising offenders in the community, to prison reviews, women’s custodial services, parole boards and work inside a maximum-security custody centre, Bronwyn has seen the system from many angles.

    This presentation will explore what has changed over the decades, what surprisingly hasn’t, and the realities behind punishment, rehabilitation, risk, release and community safety. Along the way, Bronwyn will share observations and stories that reveal the human side of a system most people only ever see through headlines, television and court reports.

    There will be time for a cuppa and questions.
