As an independent, member-driven organisation, we have a 27-year history with more than 200 members aged from 51 to 97 from a wide variety of backgrounds and skill levels.

Our objectives include:

• enabling people over the age of 50 to use desktop computers, laptops, cellphones, tablets, etc in an economical and relaxed manner
• providing opportunities for those already with computing experience to explore favourite specialty subjects
• encouraging experienced users to assist others in areas of their expertise

Learning is conducted by our enthusiastic tutors (mainly members) in a very relaxed and cheerful manner with a wide range of tutorial and discussion group sessions. Sessions are each 2-hours on weekdays (mornings and some afternoons). To satisfy demand some are now available on Saturdays.

Look at our website  https://www.seniornetns.com for a glimpse of what we are about and our huge “knowledge base”, newsletters, schedule of workshops and discussion groups, etc. 

We welcome your enquiries. (ph. (09) 486 2163)
