This week Rose and Zara's main stories are about the 30th anniversary of Nelson Mandela’s release from prison, and all about the history and meaning of Valentine’s Day. They also talk about the continued spread of the Coronavirus, why the UAE is banning homework in government schools, Boris Johnson’s cabinet reshuffle, and review the children’s book “Equal to Everything: Judge Brenda and the Supreme Court”.


Every week, the team behind NewzKidz-global news and current affairs reported by kids, for kids gathers to figure out what's happening in the world. Hosts Rose, Zara, Aiza, and Laurie, who are all between eight and eleven years old, take the big, complicated stories from the headlines and break them down in a way that makes sense. They talk about everything from science and the environment to events in other countries, focusing on why these topics matter to a younger audience. The result is a refreshing and genuine conversation you won't find anywhere else. This isn't a lecture; it's a group of curious kids sharing what they've learned and asking the questions adults might not think to ask. Listening to this podcast feels like being part of a smart, global club where your perspective is valued. Each episode is designed to spark discussions long after it ends, whether with classmates, family at the dinner table, or teachers at school. The hosts encourage you to form your own opinions and share them. For any young person wondering about current events, or for adults interested in hearing the news through a fresh, unfiltered lens, NewzKidz offers a unique and essential take on the week's events, proving that you're never too young to engage with the world around you.
