New Reporters to Astronomical Uplands

I would like to give a huge thanks to Jack Morgan and his reporting team [Jon Perret, Adam Farmer and Nick Maxfield] for their excellent, interesting and fun articles over the last year.




The GCSE Astronomy class 2009-2011

In particular, Jack became our first student editor last year, and has done a grand job in kick-starting off the Student Voice, and it has been a pleasure to see what he has come up with next - I've personally really enjoyed reading ! Unfortunately, our original team have finished their GCSE course (Well done for the good grades! :-) ) are now into studying for their A levels, so haven't as much time to devote to the Astronomy blog. However, we are hopeful this isn't the end of Jack's involvement in the blog, and that there might be further contributions in the future...

So, thank you, once again, to the four of you for breaking new grounds and creating our first Astronomy reporting team!

Luckily, we have a new, enthusiastic Editor to take Jack's place. Year 9 Astronomy GCSE student, Alex Doe, has volunteered to become our new editor, and will be getting a team together over the next couple of weeks. As before, if you have a contribution to make to the blog, please give it to Alex, or myself (in the prep room opposite L8) and we will reward you with an astronomy badge. Welcome to the team, Alex!
