Welcome to the home of Chorlton Park Radio.
We are a brand new station broadcasting over the internet via podcast. That means we don’t broadcast live but pre-record our show and then post it on the internet for you to download.
We hope that our first show will be available in a few weeks.
In the meantime, here are some links to other primary schools with radio stations (we don’t think there are any in Manchester so we hope to be the first).
The Downs Primary School in Kent
Radio Sandaig from Sandaig Primary in Glasgow
We don’t have a name for the radio station, or a logo. Please add you ideas for the station name by clicking on “comment”. There will be a poll appearing on this blog on Monday so that we can vote on the best suggestions.
Next week, once we’ve decided on the name there will be a competition to design the logo.

I think it should be called chorlton park DJs.
I think downs fm was good because it was funny
I think the people on radio sandaig spoke too fast

I think downs fm was good because it was funny.
I think radio sandaig could have been improved by not talking so fast.
Roisin 5LW // Sep 14th 2007 at 10:27 am
I think that our internet radio or whatever it is ,should be called
chorltonpark FM.
I also think downs FM was good ,but it probably could of been better
but if I did have to choose between Downs FM and Radio Sandaig
I probably wouldn’t be able to choose because Radio Sandaig had
better music but went on too long but Downs FM had that stupid
chipmonk thing that made me laugh but didn’t make sense the
only reason I laughed because it sounded like someone had ,had

downs fm was funny because it had squeaky voces
sarah 5LW // Sep 14th 2007 at 10:28 am
I think that radio sandaig was really good and i liked the music but i think that it went on for to long . Also you could hear people rustling skripts and microphone but on the whole it was very good.
i think we should call are raidio station Acorns are forever!
asia 5LW // Sep 14th 2007 at 10:28 am
I think that The Downs FM was really good, I liked the music aswell as the singing but the V factor was a really good name insted of using the real X factor. I think you could improve talking louder.
I think we should call our radio station Chorlton Acorns FM
Aqsa 5LW // Sep 14th 2007 at 10:30 am
I think Downs FM was good because it was very funny. I liked the funny voice you did for the joke you put on! This is my opinion for improving. I think you should of had more practice for your words because it looked like you forgot your words. I think i liked Down FM better te radio sandaig. I think radio sandaig wasnt clear enough because all i could hear was rattling noises! I liked the music on Down FM it was funky. I think our internet should be called chorlton park DJ.

Hannah 5HW // Sep 14th 2007 at 11:41 am
I think the chorlton park radio should be called cps fm wich stands for chorlton park school fm. i think the downs fm was quite good because they had a competition and had a few jokes but the music went on for to long and it got a bit boring also you couldn’t hear the chipmonks. sandiag rodio was not that good i like the way they had music at the begining but you could her the script rustling and the microphone being tapped.
tevo // Sep 14th 2007 at 11:43 am
i liked the music in the back ground of down fm and did not like the chipmunks.i did not at all like the other one because they were not practised enough and they were cons.
Nidda 5hw // Sep 14th 2007 at 11:44 am
I think the downs fm was really good.I liked the way they came up with the v factor.There music was very funky.I think they could improve by makig some poeple talk louder.

I thought the chipmunks were funny, but I couldn’t hear them because of the funny voices.
Emily // Sep 14th 2007 at 12:24 pm
The school radio station should be called the Acorn FM. The down fm had good music and the chipmunks voices were funny ,but I could’nt understand what they were saying. Also the singing was rubbish. Radio sandaig had funky music ,but I couldn’t understand what they were saying. Also you could hear the rustling of papers and the knocking over of microphones.
Jamie 5mw // Sep 14th 2007 at 12:24 pm

noah5LW // Sep 21st 2007 at 10:36 am
I thought downs fm was really clear and was much better than than radio sandiag.
I thought the chip munks on downs fm were realy good and when the people were speaking there were no background sound wich weren’t meant to be there.on Radio sandiag the people were quiet hard to nderstand and there were some background sound which was’nt meant to be there.
caitlyn- 5LW // Sep 21st 2007 at 10:36 am
I think downs fm was much better than radio sandaig because you could understand them more. The radio sandaig reporter spoke to fast and was Scottish.
I think ours should be called CP fm
Cameron 5LW // Sep 21st 2007 at 10:37 am
I think that Downs fm was much clearer than radio Sandaig because in the Downs fm 1 had clearer voices and Sandaig had things russeling, things being tapped and the presenter was to fast and to Scottish to understand.
I think our 1 should be called Chorlton stars fm.
Hasan // Sep 21st 2007 at 10:40 am
I think the downs fm was good but I could not understand the chip munks.

downs fm was thums up
i thought the chipmonks were very fuunny, but you couldn’t hear them talking! I thought it was much better than the glasgo one in scotland you couldn’t hear them they were talking to fast so you were the best!
Peru // Sep 21st 2007 at 10:42 am
I really liked the music,the singing could most defently improve and maybe the attitude of them and I have a radio name and that is CP
DJ’s
megan 5HW // Sep 21st 2007 at 11:36 am
downs fm was better than the other radio station because it was much clearer.and the singing was really funny
lequita 5HW // Sep 21st 2007 at 11:43 am
I thought that they could inprove there speach because there voice was a bit blery, there voice was loud but people were touching the microphone so the person who was speaking i couldn,t here the person.
Noor 5hw // Sep 21st 2007 at 11:46 am
i think downs fm was much much better than sandaig.sandaig’s needs improving because it wasn’t clear but it was a bit good.downs fm was funny because of the squeaky voices and Jasmine’s singing was funny too.I think our radio name should be called C.P.P.S radio network.I also think CHORLTON PARK CAN DO BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!
jay 5hW // Sep 21st 2007 at 11:47 am
downs fm was funny and sandaig we cud not understand there accent
Daniel 5HW // Sep 21st 2007 at 11:48 am
Downs FM was brilliant the joke part was funny because even though
you could not hear what they where saying it was still funny.The other one from Glasgow in Scotland was not very clear and they talked too fast.Here is an idea for Chorlton Park radio it is CS radio FM.
aymie 5HW // Sep 21st 2007 at 11:48 am
I think it was fine and you have a good voice.
And you really need to inprove the paper resaling oh and
be louder PLEASE.Because i can not here you from i live.
And the name is called THE FANTATIC RADIO.
kasim5hw // Sep 21st 2007 at 11:49 am
I think Downs fm was very good even though you couldn’t tell what the joke was it made me laugh.The Glasgow one Scotland were speaking to fast .You rock Chorlton radio.
zaid 5hw // Sep 21st 2007 at 11:49 am
Downs fm was funny and i liked it by the laughingand everythink about downs fm and i liked the voice beacuse it was clear. Sandage was really fuzzy ithink they should improve there voice to be clear however i liked the music and they are speaking to fast.You are the best chorlton radio.
isaac // Sep 21st 2007 at 11:50 am
downs fm was brilliant but the glasgo the one in scotland was a bit weerd because you couldnt hear wat they were saying so all give downs fm a good one and glasgo a bad one.
Shakira // Sep 21st 2007 at 11:50 am
I think it was abit funny and a bit boring i think the girl that was singing could
have in practed singing cos she was afull
Alex 5HW // Sep 21st 2007 at 11:51 am
Sandage were ok, they definatly needed working on clear speech is sounded really fuzzy also, they need to work on presentation and you could hear lots of different things . Downs FM were lots lots better but you couldnt understand the joke bit atall.
Taite 5mw // Sep 21st 2007 at 12:29 pm
The chipmunks were funny and the laughs but i couldn’t understand.
The others are too fast.
Ours should be called quiz radio.
aAnd put on who wants to be on a radio.
Millie 5MW // Sep 21st 2007 at 12:29 pm
I thought that downs FM was really, really good the only thing was when the jokes came on it was a little bit hard to understand the voice. Radio Sandaig was ok but they were talking to fast,you could hear paper rustling and people kept on touching the microphone.
shelby-5HW // Sep 21st 2007 at 12:30 pm
i thought that downs fm was great. it was a bit difficult to understand. but it was better than the one in glasgow. they were talking really fast.
gabija // Sep 21st 2007 at 12:30 pm
hiya
i really liked your station
but you need to inmprove
i thought that the rustling was needed to stop because it was destracting and the the touching the mic was aswell the singing needed to be better and i like your chip monks it sounded funny but i did not understand like the beat
you make me laugh

ahmed // Sep 21st 2007 at 12:31 pm
I think the downs FM was pretty good and realy funny when the jokes came and it was realy clear and they used the music at the right time but i still think they can improve the singing.
natalie // Sep 21st 2007 at 12:31 pm
hello
The one in scotland made noises
like rusteling bags so try to improove that.
you were touching
the chipmunks were funny but they were not clear enough.
FM WAS THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!

I think that the down fm was really good because the talking was really clear and the music was fantastic . the jokes and the sound were really funny .thank you,you are the best!
alnnah // Sep 21st 2007 at 12:36 pm
i thought that st kent’s wre ok but they spoke a bit fast and i thought they were shouting a bit .
I thought that the other school were ok but they spoke a bit to muchand they had the microphone to close to the mouths so you couldm’t undrestand what they were saying.
sulaiman // Sep 21st 2007 at 12:36 pm
It was ok but you could improve it by listen to it before you put it on the intenet. Don’t put your mouth near the microphone and stop trying to be funny because your not !
JONAH // Sep 21st 2007 at 12:38 pm
I liked the FM one withthe jokes and think the music was good but the bad thing was they spok a bit to fast.
I dont wont to be afensiv but the sandak was totle rubbish because Evryone spoke to close to the mikrphone and they spoke to fast but the music was good.

michael5MW // Sep 21st 2007 at 12:40 pm
The chimpmunks on downs fm were so, so fast I could hardly here bye, so next time try and speak SLOWLY!! Also you should try not to reincarnate the X factor with all the bad singers. The people on the otherschoolwhichIcan’tremebertherename school were way to fast like chipmunks and should have rehearsed it more.
megan5HW // Sep 22nd 2007 at 10:42 am
