First News is the award-winning weekly newspaper for children (aged 7-14). In 24 pages every week the newspaper features a blend of stories about world and home affairs, the environment, sports, entertainment and puzzles all selected to engage young minds. Fun design brings the stories to life, and competitions and a sprinkling of celebrities hold the reader's attention from cover to cover.

"My seven-year-old grandson began reading a paper last year and I'm delighted to say that he appears to be hooked on it. First News arrives at his home every week and he needs no persuading to tear open the shrink-wrapper. At least one item in each issue, usually more than one, always appears to catch his eye."
Roy Greenslade, writing about First News in the Guardian

First News, the only weekly national newspaper for children, launched in May 2006. It delivers all the important stories in an easy and digestible format, in a voice aimed at inquisitive children ? the very children who in turn will grow up to be the country's great communicators.

Julia Strong, Director of the National Reading Campaign, says: "Giving children access to a variety of reading materials is essential in helping them develop as independent and enthusiastic readers. First News has broadened the range of what children are offered to read by giving them access to - and a voice within - news and current affairs."

Response to the newspaper from children themselves, as well as schools, has been overwhelming and First News firmly believes that getting children into the habit of reading and learning about the world around them from an early age encourages awareness that will stand them in good stead for the rest of their lives.
