Art Appreciation Group
Tracey Robert’s gallery/dome house Olinda
Friday, May 27,
Destination: Tracey Robert’s gallery/dome house Olinda
Tracey is a well-known musician/artist
Tracy explained how her music inspires her artwork.
As an extra treat, Tracey played a few songs on her grand piano.
The group headed for Olinda for lunch & a wander around the craft shops.
Our Art Appreciation visit to Tracey Robert’s dome house/gallery today was memorable indeed. What a great musician/artist Tracey is.
Bushwalking
Lynne Moller provided the following:
Our monthly U3A Casey 10km bushwalk took us to Birdland Reserve, Belgrave and parts of Lysterfield and Churchill parks.
The weather was lovely but a bit humid as we mastered some steep inclines.
The views were worth it; huge granite boulders, farmland and views over the city.

Social Adventures Group
Walking Basketball
Walking Basketball is a low-impact, social and fun way to improve the levels of physical activity for inactive and slightly active Australians, including those recovering from injury.
Walking Basketball is for participants of all ages, genders and abilities and helps to maintain and improve health and decrease risk factors associated with sedentary behaviour.
Whether you played years ago and want to get back into it, have never touched a ball or want to give something less strenuous a go, Walking Basketball could be the sport for you.
U3A Casey is planning classes to commence in the second semester starting August.
Venue will be the courts at Endeavour Hills Leisure Centre
