The Tuesday afternoon Intermediate Mahjong Group is currently full, however we are taking Expressions of Interest. If you would like to join the group, please register via this webpage.

We are also taking Expressions of Interest in a Mahjong for Beginners course in 2027. Please register your interest here.

What's it all about?

Mahjong is a game of skill, strategy and calculation and involves a degree of chance. The game is played with a set of tiles based on Chinese characters and symbols in groups of four.

This group is for experienced players of the western style of Mahjong.

For beginners, we will be running a new players course in Term 4 over 9 weeks. The first two weeks will be held on a Wednesday morning, with the remaining 7 weeks running concurrently to the regular Tuesday afternoon class (see exceptions below). Please click here for more information click here.

Term 4 2026 Information

Mahjong generally runs on a Tuesday afternoon in the Rodney Snell Function Room between 12.30pm and 3pm (2.5hour session).

In term 4 2026, the term runs for 9 weeks, starting on Tuesday 6th October to Tuesday 8th December, with the following exceptions:

• No session on Tuesday 3rd November due to the Melbourne Cup Public Holiday
• Session moved to Monday 16th November due to Low Sensory Voting at the Woodend Neighbourhood House on Tuesday 17th November.

The cost for the 9 week term is $45 (9 x 2.5hour sessions at $5 per session). Payment can be made online or in person at the Woodend Neighbourhood House.

If you have an idea for your community and need some support to get things off the ground then come and talk to us at the House and we’ll talk about how we can help. We love to hear from our community and get involved.

We have a range of children’s activities and adult learning opportunities during terms and some school holidays. We support local community groups – whether it’s providing a space for them to meet or giving them assistance with funding applications. Come and talk to us about your ideas and how we can help your group realise their dreams. We also run our own community building activities such as the Woodend Community Lunch and the Woodend Repair Cafe.
