The Media Cubs pop-up TV studio and newsroom inspires kids from all backgrounds to broadcast confidence and learn how to create, debate and navigate the news.
It was created by Yellow Jigsaw co-founders Grace Dyke and Kirsty Day after Kirsty failed to find after-school clubs that celebrated the views, creativity and individuality of her own two children.
As a former journalist, she came up with the idea to create a newsroom for children. Now, Media Cubs pop-up TV studio and newsroom has developed into school clubs, community clubs, holiday clubs and parties that are all jam-packed with media, digital and creative challenges – from photography, comic strip-making, newspaper reporting and TV interviewing – while also learning about the real-life news agenda and what’s fake and what’s not.
