 School Reporters decide on their news agenda |
Students from Ormiston Bushfield Academy in Peterborough have set up a multi-media newsroom for School Report News Day, broadcasting on radio and online. They've got a foreign correspondent's desk, another for Home Affairs, plus Weather and Sports desks. The Foreign correspondents have interviewed firefighters who've been to Haiti helping with the earthquake relief effort. They are also fundraising for the victims and their families by washing teachers' cars. Creative Weather Report  Multi-media research and news production |
The Home Affairs desk is looking at the dangers of Facebook, asking young people in the local community for their opinions on the social networking site. Meanwhile, the weather team are making a creative weather report, using skills learnt in their performing arts class. The Sports reporters are at Peterborough United, gauging reaction to last night's 1-0 win over Sheffield United. Lois, Kyle and Helen also appeared on BBC Radio Cambridgeshire this morning, reading the sport, weather and travel.
