Hi everyone,

November has been a month I’d personally like to push from my mind.

From a club point of view, Computerpals has continued to flourish due to the wonderful team we have, who stepped up to continue to run the club effectively. Our committee members and tutors are outstanding, and our learners have been the beneficiaries of their efforts.

We had a social outing to the Hunter Region Botanical Gardens, which was a great day out, thanks to our Social Organiser, Brenton Elsey. His report appears elsewhere in this newsletter.

December is here, and we are in the last couple of weeks before our breakup on 9/12/2025.

Our Christmas lunch will be held on Wednesday, 10/12/2025, starting at 11:30 am at Club Lambton.

If your name’s not down unfortunately there can be no additions or refunds after 3/12/25.

All those attending are encouraged to be in their best Christmas outfits in the spirit of the day.

The Christmas lunch will end our club activities for 2025, as we will soon be into the school holidays and our recess.

The program is in the process of being drawn up for our return on 2 February 2026. When it is finalised, we will send it out to you by email and post it on our website for your information.

I now bid you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

With my best wishes and thanks to all my friends and supporters.

Barry Keen
President
