St Thomas’ Primary School - Sale

St Thomas Primary School in Sale has joined the KidsCast program in 2026, giving students the opportunity to share their voice through their own school podcast.

St Thomas is a welcoming Catholic school community with a strong focus on student learning, wellbeing and connection. The school encourages students to be active participants in their education and community, making podcasting a natural extension of this approach.

Through KidsCast, students are now creating a podcast that shares school news, interviews and stories from across the school. It provides families with a more engaging way to stay connected, while giving students a genuine sense of ownership over what they produce.

Being involved in the podcast allows students to build confidence speaking and presenting, develop communication and storytelling skills, and work collaboratively as part of a team. It’s a practical and creative way to bring learning to life.

“KidsCast has been an incredible platform for amplifying our students’ voice and agency, giving them authentic opportunities to create and share their learning.

The technology is intuitive and easy for both staff and students to use, and the support from Francine and Leif makes the whole process seamless.

It’s a modern, inclusive alternative to a traditional newsletter that genuinely boosts student and family engagement.

We would absolutely recommend KidsCast to any school looking for a simple, impactful way to connect with their community.”
