A number of members enjoyed a coffee meeting at the Little Pantry on Tuesday morning last week. It was good to get together for a chat.
This week's meeting is set aside to discuss upcoming events such as our public presentation on Voluntary Assisted Dying which will be held on 17th September.
We have set the visit to the Terracotta Warriors as Tuesday 12th August at 3:00pm. See below for information and the booking link. Please book as soon as possible so you don't miss out.
See you at Leederville Sporting Club on Tuesday.

ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
Step into the extraordinary world of China’s first emperor Qin Shihuang, to explore his life, legacy, and afterlife.
Immerse yourself in cutting-edge technology and deepen your understanding of this remarkable chapter in human history, with more than 225 exceptional Chinese artefacts, including the warriors, appearing together globally for the first time.
Created by the WA Museum in collaboration with, Shaanxi Cultural Heritage Promotion Centre and the Emperor Qinshihuang's Mausoleum Site Museum and including some recently excavated pieces, this is the boldest museum exhibition ever held in Western Australia.
Exhibition overview
Ancient China gave rise to some of the world’s greatest cultural and scientific achievements as well as some of the most powerful imperial dynasties – one of which changed the face of China forever. Relics unearthed in the ancient tombs of Shaanxi Province, including an army of terracotta warriors, tell the story of an ancient and enduring culture.
Across seven distinct areas, you’ll journey through the life, legacy and afterlife of China’s first emperor, Qin Shihuang – from ancient daily life to the monumental tomb built to secure his rule in eternity.
RCWE is visiting the exhibition on Tuesday 12th August at 3:00pm
