πŸ“° BREAKING: We're looking for our next campus journalists!

Think you've got what it takes? The Horizon–English is looking for its newest members!

Whether you love writing, speaking, taking photos, drawing, editing, or creating digital content, there's a place for you on our team.

Some of you already have experience. Some of you are just beginning. Both are welcome here. Experience is an advantage, but it isn't a requirement. More than anything, we're looking for students who are passionate about learning, open to coaching, committed to improving, and ready to give their best. The rest, we'll learn together.

Choose your category:

News Writer – Report events, interview sources, verify information, and write clear, accurate news stories.

Editorial Writer – Got something to say? Turn your opinions into thoughtful editorials that make people think.

Feature Writer – Tell the stories behind the people, places, and moments that deserve to be remembered.

Sports Writer – Love sports? Cover the action, celebrate athletes, and tell the stories behind the game.

Science and Technology Writer – Make Science, technology, and innovation interesting and easy to understand.

Column Writer – Turn your thoughts, opinions, and experiences into stories worth reading.

Photojournalist – Love taking photos? Turn your snapshots into stories. Don't have a camera yet? That's okay! You may use a cellphone camera during the screening. If accepted, you should have access to an entry-level DSLR, mirrorless camera, or point-and-shoot (digicam) for school coverage and competitions.

Radio Broadcaster & Scriptwriter – Be the voice behind the news and write scripts that inform and engage.

Mobile Journalist – Create news stories using your smartphone through photos, videos, and interviews.

Editorial Cartoonist – Let your drawings speak louder than words.

Copyreader & Headline Writer – Spot mistakes, polish articles, and write headlines that grab attention.

Collaborative Desktop Publisher & Online Publisher – Love editing, designing, and creating layouts? Basic knowledge of Adobe Photoshop, Adobe InDesign, or Adobe PageMaker is an advantage but not required. If you're creative, tech-savvy, and have an eye for design and layout, we'd love to have you on the team.

πŸ“Œ Please check the poster for your category's assigned time slot and read the details carefully. Following instructions and paying attention to details are the first steps to becoming a good campus journalist.

πŸ“Œ An official excuse letter will be provided upon registration at the venue.

πŸ“Œ Please be at the venue at least 10 minutes before your scheduled screening. We value everyone's time, so the screening will start promptly as scheduled.

Take the first step. Join The Horizon–English.
