My Day At The BBC- Alex


I Had A Wonderful Day At The BBC I Met Rosie From BBC She Told Us About What Goes On At The BBC Which Was Fantastic To know. What I Enjoyed The Most About Going On The Computers Learning About The Coventry And Warwickshire Website And Doing The Radio Show With Andrew And Rosie.

Our day at the BBC




We had a talk on what they do at the bbc . Rosie said anyone can come in off the street to have a look round and use the computers
Then we went on the computers with Hannah.
Then we had a talk from the editor, Tim, Who told us that he gets about 500 e-mails a day. He said he went through all the e- mails and picked out the ones that caught his attention.
Then we went into the studio to do a mock internview with Andrew.
Paul and Alex asked the questions and Rose and Lisa answered them.

I have my own radio show now!


Do you remember when told a few months ago “My dream is to have my own radio show one day” Well, my dream came true. This week I had my 1st show on Hillz FM, a community radio in Coventry. My show was an hour and I played songs and did a bit of chat. I was very nervous when I started, proper shaking, by the end of the show I was fine. It was a good laugh and great fun.
My show will be on every Wednesday from 11am until 12pm. You can listen on the internet www.thehillz.net or 102.6FM. You should be able to pick it up anywhere in Coventry or the local area. I will let you know how it goes because I have some plans for future shows

Judging the photo competition



The photo competition for this year has finished. I was proud to be one of the Judges. Judging the photos was a difficult task, because there were a lot of good photos to judge. I enjoyed the judging because it was new for me. The Major of Coventry is going to give the awards for competition in the Council House on Tuesday 17th June at 12pm. I will be happy if I can judge for the next photo competition because a really have enjoyed it.
You can see the photos from the competition on this link...

photography competition

Sorry we haven't put anything here for a while but things are very busy in the media office. We are preparing for our 1st big campaign to run during learning disability week starting on 16th June.
Denise, Lynne, Zoe & Peter have held a photography competition for people with learning disabilities living in Coventry or Warwickshire. The competition closed last Friday and we had 91 entries!!!
Peter was joined by James, Rob and Ellen to judge the entries on Monday and after a couple of hours they managed to pick the winners, but it was very hard - the photos were very very good.
We have put all the pictures on a website so please do have a look, and tells us what you think: www.flickr.com/photos/grapevinecomp2008 and see the winners.
We are going to have a show of the pictures at the Council House in Coventry from 16th -30th June and the Lord Mayor is presenting the trophies on the 17thJune.
But that's not all we have got happening over the next few weeks, so why not visit us again to find out more...
