ACTIVITIES WITH SENIORS AT LJUDSKA UNIVERZA ROGAŠKA SLATINA AND UNIVERSITY FOR THIRD AGE ROGAŠKA SLATINA

University for Third Age Rogaška Slatina runs has been a part of Ljudska univerza Rogaška Slatina for more than 10 years. It early involves around 150 senior members and offers them various activities in the field of education, healthy lifestyle and free time activities. Since 2018 we have implemented numerous activities for our members, including English and German courses, ICT literacy course, Nordic walking, QI GONG, yoga, singing and dancing classes, handcraft classes, classes on how to use smart phones, sewing classes, cooking classes educational trips and many more. We have also included our seniors to local and international activities in the frame of our Erasmus + projects, such as TeaTime project.   We find it very positive that many of our mentors are members of the university for third age and they share their knowledge from their previous occupation or hobbies with their peers. At the same time, we have noticed that courses run by the members themselves are usually more visited than the ones led by hired professionals.
