UNIVERSITY of the Third Age (U3A) is an international movement that started in France in 1973, and first came to Melbourne in 1984 and Hamilton in June 1998.

Its aim is to offer stimulation to the minds of semi-retired and retired persons aged over 55, those in the “third age of life”, because “our brains don’t want to retire”.
