Who We Are
The Endeavour Seniors Computer Club is a not-for-profit organisation formed in October 1998, based in the Sutherland Shire of Sydney and managed by member volunteers. The history of the Club can be found here.

Our aim is to teach computer skills to adults over age 55 in an enjoyable friendly way where you are amongst people of your own age group.

What We Do
The Club uses the World Wide accepted philosophy of peer training by other members who have achieved a good level of understanding and competency. This allows the Club to keep the membership and course fees at an affordable level.

The Club has its own computer training facility fitted out with the latest model computers and software.

Where We Are

Please note that the training facility is in Gannon's Road, Caringbah and is not the same location as where we hold our monthly meetings.

Our meetings are held on the 3rd Monday of the month at 10.00 am at the Sylvania Community and Youth Club, 288 Box Road, Sylvania. Visitors welcome.

At the meeting we have product demonstrations and guest speakers on computer-related topics of interest to our members. You can also book for lessons on a variety of computer related subjects including Windows Vista, how to use the internet, etc, etc. We have a freebie table with a number of "pre loved" books and computer items. There is also a canteen for a cup of tea or coffee before the meeting. During this time you can interact with like-minded people and ask questions.
