Reviews:

I LOVE FIRST NEWS
There’s so much to read and there are so many cool facts. I race my brother at the puzzles every week but my favorite section is ‘Crazy But True’ – I always have something weird to tell my friends about!
Josh, aged 11

FANTASTIC!
Since subscribing to First News my daughter joins in with Sunday morning paper reading and is able to participate in the many conversations... we often read it together which is fun.

MY CHILDREN LOVE FIRST NEWS
Zak generally disappears for an hour or so on a Friday after school to read it and I’m ashamed to admit that he generally knows more about current affairs than me thanks to his weekly newspaper reading. I love that First News is teaching him about what happens in the world in a sensitive but informative and factual manner. Our First News subscription is honestly worth every single penny.
John, Dad
