An Official Newspaper for Your School


Lake House has initiated a programme named as an official newspaper for your school.

For whom?
  • For the talented writers and speakers within the school system
  • for the students who want to become presenters
  • for anyone who wants to write for a newspaper
  • for those who want to work with videos, and even for the little ones who like playing with a camera.

How does it work?
Twenty talented students from the school will be selected and brought to Lake House for a free media training workshop, where we will practically teach how to use your talents to contribute to the school newspaper.

Not only that-we'll also show how to create an online e-newspaper powered by video technology. So, to collect the information needed for your school's official newspaper, to document your talents, and to gather content for your e-newspaper, the Lake House Department of Government Relations media team will visit your school and work directly with you.

The 12-page newspaper created by you will be printed on 70gsm Off Paper and distributed alongside the 'DailyNews", Dinamina and thinakaran  national newspaper in your province. Also,the digital e-paper will be available on your mobile device for sharing with everyone.
