The RadioHeads Project Made Possible by CJAS Community Radio and Canadian Heritage
Begins in December 2009 and ends in March 2010
With the Radioheads program, you can learn a variety of cool skills and techniques such as:
RadioHeads will be held after school on Tuesdays, Thursdays, & Fridays from 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm in the school computer room. The first RadioHeads class will be held on Tuesday December 1st and is available to all secondary students at Ecole St. Augustine School. Stop by and join in on the fun with the RadioHeads project, SEE YOU THERE! RadioHeads, Made Possible by CJAS 93.5 fm In Collaboration With Canadian Heritage
In December 2009, CJAS began the RadioHeads project with the students at Ecole St. Augustine School which continued until March 2010. This exciting project was funded by Canadian heritage and successfully had a total of 22 youth from our community that were involved. The project coordinator was our very own Abbygail Wellman. The goal of the RadioHeads project was to give the youth the opportunity to share their interests with other people through the awesome world of radio and this goal was surely achieved as all the particpants had a grand time. Each participant enjoyed conducting interviews, creating public service announcements, and going live on air at CJAS! At the end of the project, four secondary IV students created a radio documentary titled 'Exploring Our Roots, A Step Back In Time With Residents Of St. Augustine' which was a huge success! Congratulations to all the participants of the project, you did an exceptional job! We hope to have you join us again at CJAS Community Radio Station.
