What is Press Pack?
 
 
 

The Press Pack is a club jam-packed with cool stuff all based around the news and reporting it!

Joypad icon
Not only that but if you sign up to become a Press Pack member, you'll get points for everything you do on the site whether it's a journalism tutorial or playing one of our cool games.
 
 

Pad and pen icon

Write a report for us and there may even be the chance it’s published on the internet.

And of course there’ll be amazing competitions where the winners will get to report on special assignments.

Monitor icon
Once 1,000 points have been reached, the door to Level Two will open and inside will be even more exclusive games and tutorials. Find out more about collecting points.

So, for those of you who haven’t yet put pen to paper, oops, that should be fingers to the keyboard, get ready to be part of the Press Pack!

Did you know the Press Pack has been around for over 10 years?

The original Press Pack Club launched on 17 February 1992 and in its first week 17,000 children had joined.

Photo of old Press Pack card Children wanting to become a Press Packer had to pay a small membership fee in which they were given a special membership card with their very own membership number on it.

If they wanted to enter competitions to win the chance to appear on TV, the Press Packers had to include this membership number on their entry form. There was only one Press Pack report each month. Just imagine - the website didn’t even exist back then!

But that is all in the past – what’s now important is that the best ever Press Pack has arrived!
