SCHOOLCHILDREN from throughout the Bridgwater area were given the opportunity to star on live radio.

Students from Robert Blake Science College, Nether Stowey Primary School, North Petherton Primary School, Otterhampton Primary School, and St Mary’s Primary School, in Bridgwater, took part in We Make Radio – a three-day programme of local stories, music, sports and jokes.

The event was part of the Sedgemoor Learning Alliance’s Give It A Go! Initiative.

The show, which was produced by Somerset Film, based at The Engine Room in Bridgwater, and transmitted by Bridgwater YMCA, featured on 87.7FM.
