Welcome back! A new school year begins…
Hello everyone, and welcome back to school! From all of us at Picture News, we hope you had a restful break and are ready to continue inspiring children this year.
It’ll be another year of weekly news resources from us, exploring what’s going on in the world, to help children learn from current events and consider their own thoughts and ideas!
If you’re new to Picture News, here’s a quick summary of what you can expect within each news pack:
- A vibrant poster with a relevant image portraying the news story and a big question, to stir children’s thoughts on the topic.
- An age-appropriate news story summary, with further questions for discussion.
- An assembly resource to help you present the news story in assembly!
- Differentiated learning materials based on the story and big question.
- A teacher guide to support you with conversations and teaching the news.
- Links to British Values, Protected Characteristics and UN Rights of the Child.
- A newspaper with more engaging stories from around the world!
- A Take Home resource to build your home-school connections and extend learning at home.

Good luck for the new school year ahead 😊
