U3As are voluntary Seniors’ Groups that provide educational, recreational and social programs. Each U3A is organised by and for people who can best be described as being active in retirement or semi-retirement, the third age of our lives.
U3A Wallan Inc was established in 2013 for people in their third age. U3A Wallan Inc is community based volunteer organisation open to anyone who is over the age of 45 and are retired or are semi-retired. No qualifications are required to join. New members and volunteers are always welcome!
University in the original sense described as a community of learners, sharing knowledge; our classes are non-competitive, without marks or exams. We focus on enabling members to expand their knowledge in existing areas, and to explore new fields and activities.
Third Age refers to post-working age. U3A is for retirees or semi-retired persons who want to continue learning in an informal environment as well as share in social activities, thus making the third age the time of their life.
Our Mission is to make the third age the fun age for Wallan and district residents through participation in U3A Wallan Inc. activities.
Our Aim is to provide opportunities for seniors to learn, teach, share and to give mutual support to each other in a friendly and warm environment, regardless of ethnicity, religion, ability or disability.
Our Philosophy is to engage the third age to continue to learn and share knowledge in a diverse community!
A chance to learn, a chance to teach: U3A Wallan Inc. offers opportunities not only to learn but to become a class tutor, leader, to share with others a lifetimes worth of skills and knowledge.
U3A Wallan Inc are devoted to healthy and productive aging; providing affordable learning, physical activities and our classes cover a wide range of interest areas, from academic to physical and artistic activities. Our members enjoy both the intellectual engagement and the social aspect of our classes.
U3A Wallan Inc is operated by a Management Committee elected by the members at the Annual General Meeting each year. We are one, we are many. While operating independently with our own elected committee we are supported by U3A Network Victoria which provides organisational planning support as well as facilitating broader relationships between member U3A’s and affiliates, peer organisations and Government.
Bring yourself up to date with this technical age at your own pace. Fulfill life-time ambitions, revive an interest or try something new. Make new friendships. Come Join Us Now! Go to Memberships to find out more!
