24 July The artificial grass has been laid - here's the pictorial story! Our thanks to all who contributed too the cost of this valuable facility, which many of our User Organisations will now enjoy - as well as our clergy (scroll on down....!)

21 July Today was a massive milestone in the life of Myland Parish Halls. Di Powell, who has led, managed and directed Myland Playgroup for (we think it's) 27 years, has bowed out, and the Playgroup will be in the capable hands of a new manager when it reopens after the summer holidays. Di would not say that there would be no Halls without her, but we can say with certainty that her enthusiasm and expertise have ensured that the Playgroup have been the major hirer of the Halls for all those years, and Di herself played an important role in the specification of the facilities we now enjoy at the Halls. Added to that, the artificial grass was her idea and the Playgroup have raised significant funds for the project - so it's great to see it happening right now. Thank you, Di, for all you have done - from the Halls Management Team, the Modernisation Project Board and all of us at St. Michael's.

17 July Girlguiding Myland and the Youth Group have been slaving away, making the gardens around the Halls look very attractive indeed! Here's the result of all their efforts:
