Our team are fully engrossed editing their reports. Here’s Thomas and Theo editing their Sports report…
…and David editing his report about the resignation of the Pope.
Other stories being covered today include a report on body image and identity amongst teenagers. Our reporters are having a quick lunch break now, but are on schedule for the 2pm deadline.
Our reports today include the resignation of the Pope, an in-depth Sports report, a news round up of the latest events happening in school and a Science report on the recent Institute of Physics Lecture hosted at Marden.
Our reporters already busy editing the early stages of their reports.
Our reporters our out and about filming their stories and interviewing fellow students and members of staff. And we’ve already been spotted by the official BBC School Report Page.
Our editorial meeting is underway, and our reporters are discussing their stories. It looks like amongst other stories, we’ll be focusing on what’s going on within school, with some classroom refurbishments imminent and we’ll be reporting on the recent success of some of our sports teams.
Our Year 8 team have assembled in the Media Studio for their final Practice News Day. Stay tuned to our BBC School Report Page for the latest live posts…
