Xmas in July @ Eltham Central Pavilion
Jul 16 @ 12:00 pm – 2:00 pm

At last year’s Christmas function, we had some suggestions that we should have a lunch for members who would prefer a daytime event and/or a cheaper event. So, this year we are having a Christmas in July lunch for those who did not attend the December event.

Enjoy a sit-down Christmas buffer plus a glass of bubbly. Be entertained with Christmas carols by music duo Out of Nowhere. All for just $15.

There will be a small raffle at the event and the proceeds will go to C.A.V.E. (Community and Volunteers of Eltham).

Register your planned attendance with the Office by email (office@nillumbiku3a.org.au).

Into the woods Jr. (play) @ Eltham Little Theatre

During 2024, Eltham Little Theatre are generously offering U3A members half price tickets for their Sunday matinee shows. The dates for which this is applicable for Into the woods Jr. are Sundays, 7th, 14th and 21st July.

This musical, by Stephen Sondheim and James Lapin, re-tells the classic Brothers Grimm fables. It centres on a baker and his wife, who wish to have a child; Cinderella, who wishes to attend the King’s festival; and Jack (and his beanstalk), who wishes his cow would give milk. When the baker and his wife learn that they cannot have a child because of a witch’s curse, the two set off on a journey to break the curse, and wind up changed forever.

Here are the mechanics: you book your tickets online. Choose the date, then the number of ‘U3A member’ tickets, then enter the ‘502024’ discount code in the ‘gift certificate / promotion code’ box, then pay.
