Wooford local’s Wooford local’s work experience
THE Sentinel had the pleasure of working with Woodford resident and Maleny High School student, 15-year-old Fynn Cattley, last week as part of his Year 10 work experience.
Over the past week, I had the opportunity to work with the amazing team at The Sentinel.
During my time there, I gained valuable hands-on experience and developed a deeper understanding of community journalism.
As part of my role, I researched information about the famed Bribie Island Classic Boat Regatta, gaining insight into a fun event that has turned into a tradition in the community.
I also read over several interviews with members of the community in order to contribute several articles covering a variety of topics, which allowed me to hone my writing skills and adapt to writing about different topics.
Additionally, I travelled out to Esk to experience the Esk show firsthand, which allowed me to connect directly with locals and witness how much the show meant to them.
This experience has been very educational, and I’m grateful to have been part of such a passionate and dedicated newsroom.
