Meet The Cubs
With two kids of her own, Kirsty was inspired to start Media Cubs after failing to find a club that gave her own children the opportunity to celebrate their views, creativity and individuality. As ‘big boss’ she loves bringing the newsroom to life and her 15 years’ experience working as a journalist gives the Media Cub reporters a real-life insight into the workings of a newsroom.
