POWA Christmas Screening, 14th December, 2025

And it’s time for our Jolliest day of the year!

This is the final POWA Screening of 2025, before we all take a couple weeks off for the holiday season. No worries, though, since POWA is already planning our 2026 year!

This screening is a little bit special compared to our normal screenings – but first, a recap.

Last week we saw the end of our Slice of Life/Romance series “My Roommate is a Cat!” 

And while an ending show would normally result in a new replacement, rather than start us on a brand new series and then not watch it for a month, we’ve decided to kick that proverbial can down the road and will vote on a new Comedy series in 2026. Keep an eye out for the suggestion threads after New Years! So, who’s wondering what we will be doing in its scheduled timeslot? You will, until you come to POWA, that is!

Thankfully for our lineups continuity, our Mature, Horror & Thriller series “Vinland Saga” passed its first vote – we continue with it into the new year. Whether or not we continue our Action & Sports series “The Red Ranger Becomes an Adventurer in Another World”, which is a very long title to type) is up to the POWA members this week, as it reaches its first vote on Episode 4.

Finally, it is worth pointing out that our online presence won’t disappear over the break – our Discord is still active, and (barring the holidays themselves), our Going Home Club will continue, and the chatrooms will be open. Maybe jump into the chat and see who you can make the most jealous about your holiday season?

POWA will be back in January 2026! Keep your eyes peeled on our Website, our Facebook and our Discord for that information as it arises!

Entry for our weekly screenings is $4 for members and $5 for guests – However, your first time is free! Every entry prior to our break receives a raffle ticket for a weekly prize. We will be in the upstairs meeting rooms of the City of Joondalup Library. Our doors will open at the same time as the library – 1:00PM – and we will start screening at 1:30PM, leaving you time to find the room and settle down with some drinks and snacks.

We hope to see you there, and have a very merry holiday and a happy new year!

POWA AGM & Committee Election, 16th November, 2025

Please Note: This is not a regular screening open to the public! This is a closed door meeting for POWA Membership only. If you have not got POWA membership and would like to attend, please inform us prior to the meeting so we can be ready to make you a member before we start! If you are not a member, but still wish to attend, you may ask a committee member for permission – though you will still not be permitted to speak, discuss, vote or raise topics during the meeting or election. There will be no entertainment during this meeting!

POWA reaches the end of its 2024/2025 committee year this weekend. As such, it’s back to our own little polls for the chance for the POWA membership to decide on the running committee for the 2025/2026 year!

Before we get to that, though, POWA will be holding the 2025 Annual General Meeting. 

This will be much like a greater length quarterly General Meeting with a general focus on major activities, events and milestones for the club, as well as a general catch up on everything from club relationships to our finances.

The agenda for this GM can be viewed on this link.

Towards the end of the AGM, we will also be hosting our election.

If you are interested in nominating yourself for the POWA committee, there are a few steps you need to do; First, ensure you have active POWA membership, and second, email us your name and a clear statement of intent to be on the POWA committee at POWAClub@gmail.com.

There will be an opportunity for you to self-nominate on the day, prior to the election, but there may be additional steps for you to take if you do so.

If you wish to vote at this meeting, but are unable to attend, you may nominate a proxy on your behalf. This will need to be done in writing at least 24 hours prior to the AGM and Election, but they will be able to act on your behalf during the AGM and the Election.

If you are nominated for the committee, but are unable to attend, please inform the POWA committee as soon as practical, so we may take additional measures to ensure a fair election.

If you have any further questions, concerns or wish to raise a point or feedback for this meeting, please feel free to reach out to POWA on any of our contacts.

This meeting will be recorded both in writing and audio formats. You attending this meeting is assumed permission; if you do not wish to be recorded at this meeting, do not attend this meeting.

We hope to see you there!
