Who can take part in each of the classes?

Tick the correct option.

You will hear a conversation about a range of classes and activities offered at a community centre to raise money for a charity. Now listen carefully and answer the questions. Right, so can you give us a few ideas about what classes people might do there? Is it all art classes? Well, there are some very good art classes, but there are lots of other things going on as well. So... For example, there's Learn Salsa with Nina Balina's team. They say that salsa is an easy dance to learn. It's also an excellent form of exercise, according to Nina. And that class is for both men and women, of course. It's ideal for beginners and what they call refreshers. That's 100 pounds for 10 sessions. Then, another class is called Smooth Movers. It's with Kevin Bennett. And it's for you if you don't have the same energy levels as you used to when you were a teenager. It's a gentle exercise class, geared to the needs of whoever is in the group in a particular session. And Kevin is qualified to teach classes to people getting over injuries and so on, and balance training. That's 60 pounds for 10 sessions. Then there's a day called Art of the Forest with Jamie Graham, where you discover Upper Wood, a short walk from the Colville Centre, and learn how to design in 3D with natural materials. It's an unusual and exciting way to be creative. Jamie is an artist with a background also as a country park ranger. For this day, youngsters must be accompanied by a parent or guardian, and the costs are adults, 40 pounds, under 14s, 10 pounds, but it's best value at 80 pounds for a family of four. The next one is The Money Maze, and this is a series of talks by Peter O'Reilly, an independent financial advisor. He gives advice on family finances, things like everything parents need to know about managing the costs of bringing up children, sending them to university, and actually also about care for elderly relatives. It's 10 pounds per talk, which will all go to support forward thinking. And as a final example of what's on offer, there's make a play. That's for eight to four teens. And this activity is such a hit that it usually sells out within days of being announced. Basically, what you do is write, rehearse, and perform a play in just two days. And it doesn't require any previous experience. I gather there's lots of fun and silliness along the way. And the best bit, perhaps, is that there's a performance for family and friends at the end. It's just 50 pounds for two days. Pretty good range of activities, I think. And all raising money for a good cause. Yes. And the all-important contact details are colville at forwardthinking.org.uk or write to me.
