There were many jobs for the children to do: producing; directing; editing the clips and even controlling the camera! The children were placed into four groups and created their own lifelike report on sports and edited it afterwards. The directors and producers got to dress the reporters ready for the scene and also make the executive decisions regarding the reports.
Peiyce Egan, of Redwood class, said that she felt like a real reporter after the amazing experience!
Amazingly, the pupils were given a quick tour of the Sky studios and they even saw Jim White studying the headlines in between live broadcasts. It was incredible to see so many people working in sync to create one news report and it just proved how important teamwork is. Temira Hascar, Larch class, explained "We definitely used reciprocity throughout the day and we also saw how adults use it in their daily jobs!"
To finish off the day, the children watched the final edit of the newspaper report and everybody loved it! Year 6 were also given their very own wristband to take home, which included a clever usb connection so that the children are able to show their families and friends.
86% of the year group are now considering a career in television after today's trip and we are very pleased to see the children aiming high with their career ambitions and aspirations.
