Computer Internet Classes
COMPUTER INTERNET CLASS
Our computer internet class was completed on Monday 26th November 2012 with a lesson on sending e-mails and most importantly - online shopping - just in time for Christmas shopping!
Deep concentration on the handout
Eleanor ably explains e-mails
Rosin and Stephanie doing some of the introductory work at the start of the course.
There's always paperwork, even on a computer course!
Tea break! An essential part of taking a break from the computer screen.
Stephanie and Roisin
A very worthwhile course indeed. Computing is so much part of life today and thanks to Eleanor, Stephanie and Roisin there are more who can understand and make use of it. Thanks girls

Tuesday morning
Art Class - Ever fancied trying your hand at a little painting? Well now is your opportunity! The class runs from 10.30am -12.00pm, it commenced on 25th September 2012 but runs for 9 weeks so there's still plenty of time and the fee is £45. Come and try, you never know you could be the next Picasso!
Wednesday morning
Yoga - A very popular class that runs from 10.30am - 12.30pm. The class commenced on 19th September 2012 but as this class goes on for 10 weeks you can still come along and benefit from it. The fee for the 10 sessions is £20
Thursday morning/afternoon
FADA which stands for Feeny and Dromboughil Active group meet on Thursdays from 10.30am -2.30pm. This is a place for the more mature people in the community to meet chat, read the papers, do a little light exercise now and again, get advice and go for walks when the weather is suitable. Lunch is also served and new members would be made most welcome to the group - you know what they say, "The more the merrier!". There is a small fee of £5.20 each day to cover morning tea/lunch and general costs.
Thursday evening
Yoga - As I said, yoga is a very popular class, so we are holding one in the evening too. It runs from 7.00pm - 9.00pm and commenced on 20th September 2012 and runs for 10 weeks with a fee of £20.
Monday 15th October 2012
Supporting Communities - Computing online. We are holding this class for those who would like to either learn how to or just to brush up on their skills working online. This will be run 10.00am -12.00pm and will run for 6 weeks and there is no fee, this is a free course. What more could you ask?!
We are also in the course of organising a Digital Imaging Class and class to teach how to do Farming VAT online. A few details need to be clarified and further information will be given in due course, so just watch this space.
Creative writing
Ever fancied having a go at doing a bit of writing, is the next J K Rowlings out there. She started in a cafe! Well, you have the opportunity to come along to a one night class which is a taster for Creative Writing, no signing up for a long course (unless you want to).
This will be held in the Centre on Monday 26th November 2012, 7.30pm -9.30pm and everyone will be made most welcome to come and try and no doubt have a bit of chat as well.
Now, after all this nobody has an excuse for being bored! There must be something to your liking! If you have any other ideas for classes you would be interested in contact us at the office and we will see what we can do for you, otherwise just come along and support the Community Association by your presence, our continuation depends on your support.
