BBC sports editor Mark Sidebottom met with Mrs Blaney’s media studies class and other students interested in following a career in journalism and the media.

Mark, a past pupil of St MacNissi’s College, was well able to relate to his audience and recalled his adventures as a student at ‘The Tower’ as well as talking about his career and his current job. Pupil Katie Burns interviewed Mark for the school magazine.
