Radio Club

Our pupils at Hindlip and Tibberton CE First Schools LOVE their Radio Club. All of our Y4 pupils have the opportunity to take part in our Radio Club and explore and report upon a theme relevant to our communities. They learn the skills of reporting, recording, editing and lots more!

We were proud to be shortlisted for the 2023 National Radio Awards for the categories of 'Best Podcast, with Times Radio' for our Rule of Law podcast. We were also shortlisted in 2023 for the category 'Primary School Radio Station of the Year, with Fun Kids Radio.'

We were proud to be winners of the National Radio 'Young Audio Awards 2022' for the 'Achievement within the Community Award'. We were also 2022 shortlisted nominees for 'Primary school Station of the Year'.

We were also shortlisted nominees for the 'Primary School Station of the Year' in 2019.

Supported by our school PTAs and recently by a Wytchavon Council Community Grant, Radio Club has become an integral part of school life and our wider community. Children work together from both schools to explore different themes relevant to our school communities.

What the children said:

'We have learnt so many things at Radio Club. We have learnt lots of new skills like recording, interviewing and editing which have made us really confident when we are learning new things in class or meeting new people.

One of the very best things is that we get the chance to teach people new things and this makes us feel really proud and confident. We have helped people learn all about British Values after we visited Fernhill House Care Home to find out how Britain has changed. We talked to Jack, who is nearly 100! He told us all about his life which was so amazing!

It is brilliant talking to different people, like Jeff the Minister from Fernhill Heath. We find out lots of things we did not know and can share what we found out.

Our schools had a British Values day to help us find out even more about Britain after our Podcast. The other children are always really interested in our shows and love TH Radio!'

Our Radio Club is led by the amazing Mrs Letts, a freelance consultant and local historian who specialises in interviewing and recording people.

We were shortlisted for the 'Young Arias Awards.' It was an amazing red carpet event at BBC Broadcasting House in the Radio Theatre. We were very proud to be the only First School involved!
