What's Up Bromley?

It's fantastic to have such a dedicated and enthusiastic What's Up Bromley? news team this year.

The group itself has been going for two years now and is run by a number of children. This year we have our largest group so far, with ten children, all of whom created CVs and applied for their advertised roles. All of the team are currently from Room 14, as we have learned that it is easiest to have one teacher overseeing the group and for the children to have close communication with each other in one place.

From the reporters and presenters, to the camera operators and editors, all members of the team are showing a great willingness to learn more about their roles and to get their fortnightly shows out to our school community.

This year we have also introduced our What's Up Bromley? blog, which we will be using to advertise our shows, post other articles of interest and to attract student voice from around our school. Take a look and feel free to comment!

We love being able to send a news team out to report on current events, go on field trips and to interview school visitors. The team are learning fast that putting together a news show takes a considerable amount of time and effort, and that communication and planning is key. As we keep hearing so many creative ideas coming out of the group, they will no doubt have a challenging and exciting year ahead of them.
