If you need more details come to the Group Support table on a Tuesday morning or ring Brenda McKnzie on 0151 531 0207

TREBLE RECORDER GROUP

The treble recorder group could take up to about 5 new membeMusicNotes1rs.  You would need to have some very basic knowledge of music or had played an instrument before. We could also take total beginners providing they were committed to catching up with the others in the group. It is only a fun/social thing and there is no emphasis on playing in any professional capacity.

We have also been asked to perform in May at St. Andrews church when they commemorate 100 years end of WW1.  Lyn Maloret

WALKING NETBALL

Everyone you tell that you are going to walking netball smile and then lanetball 1ugh. Little do they know how difficult it is not to run, but having said that it is still very good exercise. We meet at West Lancashire College in Skelmersdale and use their exc
ellent facilities also we have the help of their sports tutor. We start off with warming up exercises then move on to play 10 mins each way, this may not sound very much but I can assure you it is. What could be better than keeping fit and having fun as well. Cheryl Mercer.  New members welcome.

GERMAN GROUP

We meet for two hours every week on a Thursday morning. We are a group of people with some knowledge of German and a wish to improve it. We have people in our group who have studied no German since school, people who have stayed in Germany for a period, but a long time ago and people who only recently started a self study internet course. We are not for raw beginners but our skills range from a good basic understanding up to a good intermediate level. We use a lot of internet material and try to improve our German through studying stories for beginners, watching video clips and reading ad hoc articles from various sources. Newcomers are welcome.

Pedal Pushers minus the photographer!

The Pedal pushers is an intermediate cycling group who meet on a Wednesday morning and cycle on average 12-15 miles per session. A coffee stop is always included in the ride! We have started on our 2018 cycling programme which makes use of the abundant cycle tracks in the Sefton area and further afield. At the moment the group is at capacity numbers as we are mindful of the inconvenience which may be caused by large groups of cyclists travelling on Merseyrail. However if anyone is interested in the group please contact Bill Ashton 0151 285 1817.
