Great to visit the Philip Street Communities and Families Precinct today and catch up with members of U3A Gladstone alongside Senior Constable Dominic Martin from the Queensland Police Service myPolice Gladstone Region

Dominic gave an insightful and honest rundown on whatโ€™s involved in being a police officer, including the many different roles, responsibilities and situations officers can face in a single day. ๐Ÿ‘ฎโ€โ™‚๏ธ

It was a really valuable discussion and a great opportunity for community members to ask questions and learn more about the work our local police do to keep the community safe.

Thank you Dominic for taking the time to share your experiences with the group ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’›

Behind every class, outing, morning tea, guest speaker and activity at Gladstone U3A is a group of volunteers working quietly behind the scenes to keep things running ๐Ÿ“š๐Ÿ˜Š

Our committee met again this week to organise upcoming activities, events and ideas for our members. U3A is completely community driven and it only works because people continue to give their time, energy and experience to it.

Not everyone made the photo this time, our President Liz and Gaye were away, and while Mike attended the meeting, he had already headed off before we remembered to take one ๐Ÿ˜„

A big thank you to everyone involved in helping Gladstone U3A continue to be a place to learn, laugh and live.

It was wonderful to see people of all ages coming together to honour those who served and sacrificed for our country. Lest we forget. โค๏ธ๐ŸŒบ
