ON Friday 12th July the Rotary Club of Corringham Thameside invited six year six pupils from Arthur Bugler Junior School in Stanford le Hope to visit the studios of Gateway 97.8 in the Eastgate Centre in Basildon.
The purpose of the visit was for the children to record a public service information advertisement on Fire Safety and Road Safety.
They were helped in their task by two PCSO’s and a Firefighter.
The children had to script the adverts and add any sound effects themselves.
Their efforts will be broadcast shortly by Gateway 97.8.
This is the fourth school to be invited to take part in such a venture which enables the children to use their literacy skills and to gain the confidence of speaking into a microphone. It was also a big adventure for them.
