LAHORE: A group of students launched a monthly digital newsletter “The Street School Gazette” for educational rights and quality education for underprivileged communities.

The students in collaboration with Next Generation Pakistan (NGP), launched the monthly digital newsletter under its street school project. The idea was originally proposed by Dua Shazib, a student in A2, with the aim of amplifying young voices, celebrating hidden talent and encouraging creativity in under-served schools.

Each month, a different government or government-registered school submitted selected articles, essays, and artwork by their top students. Their pieces covered a wide range of topics from history and ethics to personal reflections and momentous national occasions. These were featured on NGP’s Instagram page, with each student individually credited for their contribution.

The heads of the newsletter provided thoughtful, constructive feedback to student writers to help them refine their skills and build confidence paving the way for future opportunities, including potential contributions to leading publications. The graphics team worked tirelessly to design visually engaging newsletters that honour the students’ efforts and brought their work to life.
