In response to requests, we have moved the day and time for our meetings up to the third Monday of each month at 11 am.  We have previously met at a time that coincided with a group with over fifty members, some of whom expressed a wish to join us, but who were already committed.  

We have met this month and will start the new time on Monday 20^th April.

Tawa U3A is part of an international organisation for people who are no longer in fulltime employment to share creative, cultural, physical and leisure interests.

We organise interest groups in many areas such  as art, music, crafts, games and a range of physical activities.

There are discussion groups where you can express your point of view, and sometimes listen to a speaker.

We cooperate with other U3A groups and share sessions.

In total, we offer more than 40 learning and social opportunities at minimal cost.

You are certain to find some activities that are of interest to you.

We have a reciprocal agreement with Porirua U3A which allows our members free access to each others' courses and activities.
