Preschoolers at the Goddard School of Gallatin act as 'kid journalists' for World News Day

Preschoolers attending The Goddard School in Gallatin took on the role of kid journalists to celebrate World News Day by interviewing their peers and school staff.

World News Day Celebrations

Declared nearly a decade ago by a global network of journalists and editors, World News Day on September 28 highlights the critical role reporters play in keeping citizens informed.

The School's Educational Approach

Co-owners and operators of the school, the couple Kara and David Brumley, run an educational system that encourages children to be curious and follow their own interests.

Students' Interview Experiences

Four-year-old Benji sat down with David Brumley to ask questions about his childhood, while another four-year-old student, Adelynn, asked what he loved most about his job.

The core question of the week, What is a good friend?, directly triggered participation in World News Day through the school's inquiry-based approach.
