And they are about to celebrate 50 editions of contributing content.

Oxley College’s fortnightly magazine Pin Oak is put together by staff members Emma Calver and Beattie Lanser with the help of enthusiastic students.

Year 7 student Hugh said he had never been involved with something like this before.

“I’d like to explain my ideas to the school, and it’s a way to make our school community less ignorant,” he said.

“It’s also a way for me to socialise with other year groups and hear new ideas.”

Ms Calver said she had been blown away by the amount of student input and ideas.

“Our magazine has a lot of student voice, and the children have been so consistent with turning up and contributing,” she said.

Previously Pin Oak had been published weekly as a school newsletter. The 50^th edition of Pin Oak will be published April 4, 2017.
