Today we wrote a short article about our creativity project to go into the universities magazine. This is sent to all schools and staff involved with all the different Year 3 creativity projects. We also put the link to our blog in the article and the same photograph which will be appearing the in the Bognor Observer hopefully this week! The university article is below…

Diverse FM

We are very excited and proud to be a part of The Regis school project to Raise Literacy Attainment with a group of eight Yr 9 pupils. We officially launched the project on 3^rd November with our ‘Super Start’, a trip to Spirit FM. The pupils were really engaged and were able to make their own jingle, say hello on air and were interviewed for the news bulletin. We will be working with the pupils until Christmas, including a trip to Littlehampton Academy to see how they run their school radio station and a visit from a secret celebrity. The Yr 9s have already assigned roles to each other and will begin to start planning and creating their sections, including: the news and weather, music, jingles, sport, gossip and comedy. The pupils have also come up with their own name for their radio station Diverse FM and are currently designing their logo!

For all our up to date reflections, photos and progress check out our blog at: http://raisingattainmentinliteracy.blogspot.com/ Feel free to comment, we’d love to hear your opinions!
