Warramunda Village

Four Kyabram students have combined modern technology with an “old school” method of delivering news in a community partnership that is expected to become a regular feature at Warramunda Village. The students spent an hour as “newsreaders”, reading directly from the recently produced digital edition of the village’s February Waggles newsletter.

As part of the Kyabram P-12 College Community Connections program the students read directly from the pages of the newsletter while the recently created digital edition of the newsletter was cast onto large screens behind them.

All year nine students, Ronin, Jonno, Kaitlyn and Lily, rotated through a range of stories including a 100th and 102nd birthday, the story of Resident of the Month Mavis Grummitt, and an update of the renovations which are now happening at the village. They spent time in the Saunders Street and Rockman Wings, before completing their session in the main dining room before residents had their lunch.
