Learners gets the Edge

Bakwena Publishing and Advertising recently awarded Blue Planet Media (BPM) the publishing project management contract for Edge magazine, a title by private high school learners for private high school leaners. The publication, launching in February 2008, is the brainchild of Matthew Glazer, a Grade 11 pupil from St John's College who serves as editor. The articles, photographs and editorial are compiled by dedicated teams of learners from a number of participating schools. Bakwena will be pre-launching the magazine online by end-October with a website that will also serve as an interactive and synergetic element to the printed publication after launch. BPM, in conjunction with Bakwena, is managing all advertising sales.
