What is Picture News?

Picture News is used at Holy Family, to inspire and engage in real-life learning that children can impact and influence! It gives children opportunities to develop learning further through news stories that inspire them. It allows them to discover talents and interests through the broad coverage.

Holy Family is now a Picture News Advocate School - September 2025!

 This is a fantastic resource which provides up to date information, allows for fantastic conversations and really makes us think about topical, local and world wide issues. We also link in these topics to our own school values as well as the British Values. 

We are delighted to announce that we are now an advocate school for Picture News and will continue to support the hard work that goes into keeping our children up to date. 

 Picture News exposes children to a range of current issues including political, religious, cultural, environmental, social, moral, and spiritual. It makes British Values relevant and meaningful and develop links between personal, school and community values. Children are able to demonstrate respect and tolerance explaining how they should behave or what they should say.

Please find below the weekly ‘Picture News’ that has been used in school, for you to use at home.
