Our Story
U3A Highvale is part of the world-wide Universities of the Third Age movement that began in 1972. The Glen Waverley branch started life at the Highvale Retirement Village in 1996. It is a voluntary, non-profit organisation which offers low-cost, life-long learning opportunities to people over-55.
We are fortunate to have the support of Village management and the use of facilities in the Village compound. In return, we help to combat social isolation and develop social interactions through interesting conversations, courses and physical activities.
From 11.59pm 17 February Victoria returns to COVIDSafe Summer with revised conditions. Please note that masks must be carried at all times. They are mandatory when inside (except in a residential home) and outdoors when one cannot maintain 1.5m physical distancing (unless a lawful exemption applies).
