- Herald at School (earlier known as Junior Herald, is a weekly newspaper, produced according to the best standards Herald is known for, meant exclusively for very young to young children, written and produced for them in a language they understand. It breaks away from the clutter of the buzz of images and text they get online and serves as a paper which is old school and yet fresh. It takes its readers to the simple times, when children put pen or pencils to paper to draw, colour, write, solve puzzles and above all, create.
At the same time, in keeping with the times this is juxtaposed with digital interaction to help students upload their creative work.
Herald at School (earlier Junior Herald) takes its inspiration of giving value added information to its young readers from its seasoned parent Herald, and infuses its own vivacity and robustness and endearing curiosity, which is the hallmark of every child. Junior Herald is for children, of children and largely, by children. With every subsequent edition, it inculcates the reading, thinking and creative habits in children. As it completes 125 years in January, it is preparing itself to stand the test of time for the next 125.
