NOONGAR RADIO NEWSROOM
Newsspeak members broadcast news bulletins on the station’s breakfast show and will be training radio volunteers to source and present their own news.
It is the very first dedicated news service for the station and the first project of this type in Australia.
“The students and I could not be prouder to be involved in this hugely important project – for Noongar FM, its listeners, and the Perth media landscape.”
-Rhiannon Arnold
THE LONELINESS PROJECT
RED MY LIPS
In 2015 for our first project, students localised the Red My Lips campaign from the US, focusing on the prevention of sexual and domestic violence, reducing victim blaming, and bringing more men into active campaigning on this issue.
“Please let your students know how very impressed I am with their motivation and creativity.”
-Rosie Batty, 2015 Australian of the Year
PARKERVILLE CHILDREN & YOUTH CARE
Using journalism skills to tell important stories, our students interviewed various well known people in Perth, around the theme of the importance of a happy childhood. The videos were then given to Parkerville, who support children who’ve been abused.
BIKES AND YARNS DOCUMENTARY
Four students, alongside Glynn, filmed a story on the fantastic work done on suicide and depression awareness by the Black Dog Ride group. The resulting documentary was screened on Community TV in several capital cities in 2015.
