Students of Class V observed World Press Freedom Day. As part of the celebrations, young journalists posed a number of questions on social issues. Angel and Anshika explored the topic of press and newspapers, Aarohi and Stakshi focused on protests; Angel, Anshika, and Kiana addressed the issue of terrorism; Samreet, Prabhjot and Chandershekhar took stock of stray dogs, while Anshita, Tanvi, Naksh and Jagdeep surveyed people on cleanliness. The aim of the initiative was to develop social awareness, communication skills and critical thinking among students.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
