U3A Lower North

CLAIRE EGLINTON
Chairman, Newsletter, Webmaster. Joined committee mid-term 2006. Enjoys writing our quarterly newsletter and taught herself enough to design this website though 'webmaster' is a very tongue-in-cheek title. Delegate to U3A South Australia (the State network) and U3A Online, State secretary and State delegate to U3A Alliance Australia (the national network) and national editor. Mastered computing through teaching but continues to show remarkable lack of talent in French.

KATH LOCK
Vice Chair. Elected at 2017 AGM. Retired schoolteacher, former children’s author and current resident of Riverton, Kath has been a long-term member of the U3A French class. Her attendance is punctuated by frequent travel. A lover of books, music and cruising, obsessive quilter and self-described pedant.

IAN FOSTER

Secretary.  Elected at 2017 AGM. A retired engineer, Ian is a newcomer to Clare. He arrived with a high regard for U3A as his late mother was a member of U3A Noarlunga. Ian attends History and Current Affairs. After a spell as assistant secretary, Ian stepped up to the main job in February 2020.

MARIA BARNES
Assistant Secretary: Elected at 2019 AGM to position of committee person.  Enthusiastic, energetic and good humoured, Maria is a very welcome addition to our committee. Stepped up to Ass. Sec. February 2020.
