EDDIE’s LAUNCHPADS

Imagine your Primary or Secondary school having its very own radio station with your students having their own radio show. Imagine your pupils reporting live from school sports events. Imagine teaching your children broadcasting and timing skills by working on a radio show. Imagine the parents, carers and families at home tuning into your school radio station to hear what's going on in school and hearing their own child's voice over the airwaves. You may think is beyond the budget of most, is not all schools. But it's really not. This edition of Eddie's Launchpads will show you how YOU can get this amazing resource for your school. And ways to raise funds to buy and maintain it. In this second episode of Season 5 of the Dogsthorpe Infant School Podcast, Captain Dave and Eddie the well-being dog continue their interview with the well-known broadcaster Russell Prue. Russell builds and sets up radio stations in schools across the U.K. If you are a school looking for ways to encourage young people with their media studies or improve your connection between school and family homes, then listen as we continue our discussion from last week. And then give Russell a call! https://andertontiger.com https://andertontiger.com/russell/ https://uk.linkedin.com/in/russellprue

On this LaunchPad, Eddie and Cap'n Dave meet the journalist and children's author, Kathy Urban. Kathy writes, Hop Lola Hop is my first picture book and I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I loved writing it! Many years ago, it was my dad who told me stories about the adventures of baby giraffe and her life in the African Savannah at bedtime. The little girl that I was back then absolutely loved listening to them, which by the way did not come from a book – my dad made them up. Storytelling in whatever form or shape it is performed, is a powerful tool to inspire children to use their imagination. Moreover it helps to instil a lifelong love of reading, writing and learning. Get Kathy's book in major bookshops or visit...https://www.hoplolahop.com
