Partner Primary Newspaper Day at Lincoln University

Over the past few weeks Mrs Cox & Mrs Parkinson have been visiting pupils at our partner primary schools to help them prepare articles for their first ever school newspaper. This culminated in the pupils interviewing pupils and staff on various items such as news, sport and entertainment.  The schools include Luddington & Garthorpe Primary School, Althorpe & Keadby Primary School, Eastoft C of E Primary school, St Norbert’s Catholic Primary Voluntary Academy and Crowle Primary Academy.

On Friday 10^th May pupils made the journey to Lincoln University to spend a full day with university lecturers, students and volunteer journalists helping them bring all their articles together to produce The Axholme Alliance newspaper as well as trying a short TV exercise with third year TV students from the university.

Mrs Hegarty from Crowle Primary Academy commented that they had a superb day, the children created an amazing newspaper and had the opportunity to be TV presenters.  A really enjoyable day!

Miss Hill from Eastoft C of E Primary School said she had thoroughly enjoyed taking part in being a reporter for the day and it was brilliant seeing our reports take shape, and printed.  A great day.
