Trish Thatcher, who is ranked a Silver Life Master with at least 500 master points, is conducting a beginners course each Friday starting on February 7 and ending May 2.

The lessons are for two hours from 9.30am until 11.30am. In addition to the eight weekly lessons there are two sessions of play scheduled to allow you to practise what you've learnt under supervision.

The course cost is $40 which includes full notes for all lessons.

It's a very social game and a very pleasant way of spending an evening or an afternoon and meeting new friends.

The club plays on Mondays at 6.15pm and Fridays at 12.15pm. During the year we hold various club competitions, intra and inter club events including a session fund-raising for the Alzheimer's Association, which recognises that bridge is a valuable cerebral activity and very much a part of our well-being.

If you would like further details or wish to enrol for the course, please contact our co-ordinator Margaret Rowden on 4997 2929 or by email at margaret.rowden@gmail.com.
