We are a successful on-line community website run by a small team of Year 11 students from Demotown High School. We offer a competitive on-line advertising service for our community (free to many - including those supporting the local Work Experience programme).
The Senior Management Team consists of:
- Lucy Linnegan - Managing Director (Yr 11)
- Flora Painter - Overall Webmaster & LocalBiz Co-ordinator (Yr 11)
- Bex McLennan - Marketing Controller (Yr 11)
- Pete McLennan - Sales Co-ordinator (Yr 11)
- Sam Unsworth - Photography and Picture Editor (Yr 11)
- Amy Long - Business Contacts Manager (Yr 11)

Managing and operating the community website forms a key part of our academic studies, but as an added benefit, provides a great way for business and homeworkers to promote/advertise their services.
Students work in teams within a class or form group, or the skills needed can be taken from different disciplines/courses throughout the school - e.g. from Business Studies to Sport and Media students.
