Never too young to find the write words

By Tyler Winks

HI, I’m Tyler, a work experience student at Glasshouse Country and Maleny News.

I am 14 years old, and I have had an interest in journalism for a little while and recently got a work experience opportunity here.

Journalism is only one of my interests for a future job. I also have wanted to be a Chef, as I do enjoy cooking. I currently study advertisement in Media Arts at Palmview State Secondary, so I have a good idea of the ads part of the newspaper.

I have a knack for writing out stories, both fiction and non-fiction, and journalism was a way to write non-fiction pieces and find out if it is a good choice for me.

Even though I don’t live in Glasshouse, I don’t mind the trip there.

Every day was a new adventure, such as going out for interviews, writing stories, and even sampling ice-cream at Mammino, with me enjoying every moment of it.

Journalism has been a great experience for me, with the people at GC&M News being some of the nicest people I have met in a long time.

Thank you to the team at GC&M News, and an extended thanks to the community at Glasshouse, Beerwah and Landsborough.
