SYN Media

Based in the Melbourne CBD, SYN offers media workshops for school students of all ages – including TAFE, Primary and University level students.
All our programs put students in control of a real radio studio. Creating a radio program develops personal confidence, creativity, teamwork and combines oral and written language skills. Every class is taught by a young person, under the age of 26 who has real live radio experience.

SYN offers a range of Media Learning Programs for schools:

Does your group have specific learning requirements or access needs? SYN can tailor any of our programs to suit your group, let us know when booking and we can discuss how best to meet your outcomes!*

All of SYN’s standard programs require:

• Students to be focused, to speak for 3 – 5 minutes at a time into a microphone.
• To work in groups, with the support of a SYN Trainer, to develop segment ideas.
• Sitting still for half an hour at a time.

* There may be extra costs associated with tailoring training to specific learning needs, outside SYN’s standard training program structures.
