Waterlooville U3A Board Games Group - First and Third Monday 14:00 - 16:00

We are a friendly group who meet twice a month to play a range of non-traditional (Modern) Board Games, which require a mix of tactics and strategy. Some are fairly straightforward - and then reveal hidden depths! - while others are more challenging from the start - and then we develop strategies and tactics!

In some games, the players compete against each other, in others they are a team competing against the game itself. Some have a board, some have no board (card-based games), and some build the board as the game is played (tile-laying games). One or two modify the board as the game progresses.

We have Table Leaders, more experienced members who guide the players in playing the games, so everyone can enjoy the range of games.

The aim of the Group is to have fun with friends.

Little Kickers - Now on Fridays 11.15-12.00 (18 months to 3.5 years)

#MoreThanJustFootball

Firstly, we believe in something we call “Play not Push”. It means teaching football in a fun, pressure-free environment. We want to give children a positive introduction to sport as a whole, not just football, so they’re more likely to stay healthy and active throughout their lives.

Secondly, we believe football can be educational. Coached in the right way it can stimulate imagination and aid early development skills such as learning colours and numbers, following instructions and playing as a team.

It’s an approach that has bagged us numerous awards and helped us expand globally over the last 16 years. And like all our Kickers, we never stop learning. We’re continually improving and updating our classes, based on feedback and input from child health specialists as well as our network of over 2,250 football coaches worldwide.

Everything you need is provided for you in this group, and I always give a demonstration of a technique or a project. You can then make this or make something else using the supplies that I have brought with me. I bring stamps, dies, ink, cardstock and embellishments, all I ask is that you bring an adhesive of your choice.

Refreshments are always provided, along with plenty of fun, friendship and creativity, so come and join us, it would be great to see you there.

Scrapbooking Workshop - Once a month on a Saturday - 10:30-16:30

Do you love scrapbooking and memory keeping? How about getting all those photos off your phone and into an album that has been specially and lovingly created by you, to share with your loved ones...

New for 2025 I am holding regular scrapbooking workshops and would love for you to come and join us on Saturdays.
I will provide everything that you need to get going with your pages and you will have access to all my supplies to get creative. I also sell papers, cardstock and other products for you to be able to continue working at home should you wish to.

The workshops are £25 per person and that includes refreshments and supplies. You may want to bring some loose change to buy extra papers and cardstock while you are here though, depending on how quickly you craft! Please do bring some lunch if you would like some, and feel free to bring any of your own paper crafting supplies too (though do name them, and I am not responsible for any losses throughout the day).

These workshops are perfect for the very beginner crafter, or the seasoned scrapbooker alike. Everyone is welcome and I will try and teach a new technique every workshop, so by the end of the year you will have built up a real wealth of knowledge!

Pre-booking is essential for all of these workshops and places are limited to 10 for the time being. See link below.

Here are the remaining dates for 2025...

Boxercise - the best stress buster around - is one of the most effective forms of cross-training available today. It combines use of both aerobic and anaerobic energy systems with the systematic recruitment of both fast and slow twitch muscle fibres in a manner that not only ensures a diverse workout, but also enhances sports specific senses, including hand-eye co-ordination, balance, and timing. Boxercise classes are always fun, energetic, and addictive.
