Throughout Term 4, the 9 Blue English class has been involved in a media writing project, where they have covered a range of College events as student journalists, writing news reports for the newsletter in partnership with our Marketing and Community Engagement team.
As a grade, Year 9 have been studying the topic Representation in the Media, with their major piece of writing being a feature article on a related issue of choice. This journalism project has served as an enrichment to their learning, in addition to providing a service to others in the College community, helping to communicate and celebrate the vibrant range of events that have occurred this term.
The broader learning outcomes relate to best practice teaching: providing real world audiences for student writing, project-based learning opportunities and 21st century learning skills such as collaboration, problem solving and creativity.
We hope you enjoy reading Year 9 News!
