In the spring of 2025, the children of project Grootz, students from Grotius College and various elementary school in Heerlen aged 10 to 15, accomplished a special feat: they made their own live radio broadcast about our city!
Under the enthusiastic guidance of radio presenter Timo Eckhart, they learned to work with microphones and sound and went out for city sounds, interviews and reports in surprising places. For example, they took a look in the mayor's room, visited the living room of Mr. and Mrs. Schunck, descended into a real burial vault and climbed up to the projector room of film house Royal. They interviewed all kinds of Heerlen people about their city.
