POWA and the New Perth COVID Lockdown

At 6pm tonight, the Perth/Peel region will be going into a stay at home lock down in order to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Read more about it here.

While POWA has had to cancel today’s event, currently the lock down is effective until Friday, February 5th. As such, POWA will not currently be going into hiatus.

We will be advertising an event scheduled for next Sunday, as usual. However, do note it will be tentative and based entirely around whether the lock down is ended or extended. This event will be the very important Quarterly GM and Seasonal Preview, so if we are unable to host it in person, it will be transferred to an online event, hosted on our Discord.

Our planned theatre outing will not be able to go ahead until cinemas reopen. Our planned Board Games event will still be happening until further notice on the length of the lock down.

Further updates will follow as the situation changes. As always, it’s important all of our community follow the guidelines set forth by the state government. In order to stay safe, please ensure to stay up to date to all the latest info at their website.

The doors open at 12:00PM for the Come to POWA Early event, but our regular screening will start at 3:00PM, leaving time for you to get settled and buy drinks and snacks.

POWA Screening, 24th January 2021

Location: ECU Joondalup, Room 7.101

POWA’s regular weekly screenings continue into the New Year!

Last week, we voted in two new shows. Well, one wasn’t quite so new… And that is the return of “Assassination Classroom”, Koro-sensei, and the class of 3-E to our ‘Action’ slot with Season 2 (A.K.A. the final season)! A new “Comedy” also joined our ranks with the very degenerate “Asobi Asobase”.

Both ‘Ascendance of a Bookworm’ and ‘Yona of the Dawn’ survived their first weekly votes, with members also deciding the shows were also swapping slots. ‘Yona’ is now “Fantasy” and ‘Bookworm’ is now “Slice of Life”. Otherwise, they continue as normal! It can’t be forgotten that ‘Psycho-Pass’ also lives to fight another day.

Entry for our weekly screenings is $3 for members and $4 for guests. However, your first time is free! We will be at Room 7.101, ECU Joondalup. The doors open at 2:30PM, but the screening starts at 3:00PM, leaving time for you to get settled and buy drinks and snacks.


This Week’s Schedule:
2:30PM – Doors Open
3:00PM – Ascendance of a Bookworm – Episode 5 (Slice of Life/Romance/Arthouse)
