The people who took part this year were:

Hayley, Erin, Caitlin and Rachel from S5.

Joe, Rebekah and Brittany from S3.

Jordan from S2 and Cameron, Nicole, Amy, Josh, Jake from S1.

The team was lead by Mr Rae, Miss Smith and Miss Darroch. We were lucky enough to be joined by Fiona Stalker from the BBC and the Media Department from NES College as well as a group of students.

The NES College team allowed us to use their facilities which helped us to improve the quality of our news stories this year. BBC School Report was bigger and better this year as we had a wider range of news and a bigger team to work with. Although the day was busy it was very exciting and eventful, mirroring what it is like in a real news room.

The news we gathered came in from Pittodrie, Aberdeen City Council and even Alex Salmond’s car. The whole day was a great success!

We would like to thank everyone who took part and everyone who helped us.
