Website News 

​Our website is now regularly visited by 1000 + 'unique individuals' per week, with visitors looking at an average of three pages each visit  The home page is the clear favorite - many members say they use the scrolling calendar on the website to confirm diary events.  

The newsletter is the main source of content on the website - with the website pages for each group proving a wonderful resource for visitors finding out more about our programs as well as providing an historical record and a ready reference for members. 

Over the past year we have  released a U3A Benalla and District Facebook site to complement the website.  Our Facebook page is gradually getting more likes and follows - we now have 86 followers (7 Jan 2019)  

Bev Thornell is now adding posts to the Facebook page on a regular basis.  The reports Bev writes for her Wine Appreciation and Garden Appreciation posts are now being added to the newsletter and website.  Margaret Walshe, Dorothy Webber and Geraldine also contribute Facebook posts. 

Please contact me if you would like to join the web team.

Learning to use Weebly

This website has been set up using the user friendly Weebly platform.  It is very easy to use if you have word processing skills and you can see how the page will look on the screen while working on it.  Newsletter reports are added to the web page each month.  Photos of group activities are always welcomed! 

We are looking for help with the website - please contact Bev Lee if you are interested.   You need to be an efficient user of Word and keen to learn  photo resizing.  If you have ever had anything to do with developing a website or blog - even better.   

Here are some resources which you would find useful if using Weebly.
