The following news is in chronological order from newest to oldest
and dates back to 21st December 2003 when the news section was opened.
Tuesday 28th June 2005
It has been calculated that throughout the year
2005, St. Teresa's Youth Group volunteers will have donated 21,600
minutes just in Youth Club evenings without even taking into account
time used for organising events, monitary calculations, administration,
gathering of supplies, attendance administration, charity work,
and 'out of hours' trips just to name a few of the 'behind the scenes'
activities required to make the Youth Club successful. The time
has been pledged to the 'Year of the Volunteer' website and is helping
the website gain 1,000,000,000 minutes of volunteered time.
If you partake in any non-styg charity work, please pleadge your
minutes to help this endorced campaign be a sucess.

The guestbook has been removed from
www.styg.co.uk due to a breach of security by mindless hackers.
According to a website in which they have used STYG as a trophy
for their infamous skills, the breach was conducted using a flaw
in the script used to code the guestbook and so a decision has been
made for it's romoval.
We would like to thank everyone who has contributed
to the guestbook and hope that should the fault be rectified, you
would be willing to leave your mark again.
It is a shame that the mindless activities of a
few induviduals has ruined a fundamental part of a non-profit organisation's
website.
Damage Extent:
All of the pages on the website were defaced using the code
flaw of which an example of the damage has been stored HERE

Today was the annual Christmas party. It was a
great success with a DJ, and pizza. I personally thought that the
DJ was brilliant and really 'made' the evening. Many thanks to Papa
Pizza (near the leisure centre) for supplying us with such a great
deal on the pizzas. Hope you all enjoyed your selection boxes.
See you in 2005
Ben.

Wednesday 3rd November 2004
The Rotary Swimathon 2004 will take place
on Saturday 13th November 2004 at Wilmslow Leisure Centre and commences
at 6pm.
Several Children have put themselves forward to
swim, however we need a completed Parent Consent Form. Please return
the slip before 5th November.
Teams will be picked on a first come, first served
basis. The quicker you return the form, the more chance you have
of being picked. We need two teams of six to participate.
Children taking part or just supporting the event
can be dropped off to the Leisure Centre around 5.40pm. We will
then take them back to St. Teresa's Church Hall for pizza. They
can be collected at 8.30pm.
Half of the money raised goes back to charities
related to the Rotary Club and the rest of the funds will be given
back to STYG.
This year, we would like every child to raise as
much money as possible. Each member of STYG will be given a sponsor
form not just the swimmers involved.
Your support is greatly appreciated.
Caroline, Cathy, Fiona.

We have launched our new site. We hope you like
the new layout. The site has been redesigned to give the site more
consistensy and to make it more fluent. We hope that the new layout
is not confusing and you can still find any information you require
as quickly and easily as you could with the old template. The site
has been redesigned by the current webmaster and the main changes
are af follows:
~ A new contact system whereby a 'flash' form is used to send information
and queries to one address.
~ A new more organised calendar whereby a youth club evening can
be clicked on and a popup window displays the parent helpers of
that evening.
If you have any comments about the new template, please use the
'Contact Us' link down the left hand side of the page.

per ball which lasts for 12 draws. (That's just £1 per month).
