12:57 pm on Sunday, and on Radio La Porteña just missing 3 minutes left and Free Time news starting one. In the air is the writer Maximiliano González Jewkes, who answers questions by telephone about boxing and literature that made him live Laura Rombolá, Romania school student, the Villa Real neighborhood. As agreed with her five teammates, his is the responsibility of closing the last block. However, the timer advances and Laura can not find the time to interrupt the interviewee. Opposite her, Christian Gauna, teacher and conductor of the program, the study looks at the clock, lift your right hand halfway up and makes a signal to cut ya, ya.
Laura nods, checks the time, it becomes red. Eva Gonzalez, his teacher in year 5 of the Bachelor with a major in Social Communication, looks and, Gauna, cut the air with his hand several times. The teenager is pressed the headphones and makes a face, as we explain, "was the first interview of my life! How would you cut?! ". Jewkes suddenly assumes answered the question and remains silent. All stare at Laura, and she meets him in the precarious tried recording studio school: Thank the respondent for being in the air and passes the baton to the driver. Are 12.58 h.
Now the pressure is on Gauna, but he is an experienced speaker and knows how to use those two minutes. Remember that free time is a middle school program in collaboration with the Government of the City invites the students to say goodbye to the audience and summons the audience to that next Sunday from 12 to 13 h re-tuned AM 1110 where students will accompany Thomas Spore, the district of Liniers. After a brief curtain announces, will the news. Impeccable left over a minute.
Girls relieved. In this last hour, and working near the pace of professional test scoring yielded a for Radio workshop area. In boxing class had chosen the theme for the program, week after week planned and prepared the content. Thus, tape recorder in hand, interviewed Joshua Melendez (16), a fellow who boxed, and their coach. Then read "Torito", the story that he dedicated to the boxer Cortázar Slaughterhouse Justo Suarez, and let the voice track of cronopio July and the other recorded theirs. Then, in the study of the Porteña, Christian Gauna helped introduce the blocks, synchronized the time and chatted with them about how they had open mic developed the program. Finally, com or had complications with the material they had recorded with Jewkes, were encouraged to talk to him live. In total, three weeks of work to take advantage of this first hour of radio in his life.
Well, work and many nerves. So when strikes one, Laura Rombolá (17), Karen Lucero (18), Jacqueline Gonzalez (17), Melina Menafra (17), Aldana Riguera (17) and Fiorella del Mazo (18) want to scream, but Gauna is teaching radio: they point to the two speakers ready to give the news. The girls nod, put jackets, go quietly into the hall of the 8 th floor of the Centro Cultural General San Martín and that yes, Hence hug, cry, comment on the incident and to take pictures with the teaching staff. None was thought to be a radio announcer, they explain, because they want to study cinema, advertisements or Psychology. Today, however, had fun while repeated next week. "Early Rising again on Sunday? "It was good that when we receive the messages: you felt that people were listening," says Karen, who had slept only an hour and a half because he had a birthday yesterday fifteen. They can not be more honest to ask these girls: in class or over the airwaves, all begging to get caught with the school to hear.

CHOOSE THE TOPICS AND PRODUCED
"We try to tell kids all they have to say, but with respect. It is they who choose the topics. Rodolfo Walsh in school, for example, investigated who was Walsh, one of Villa Soldati are with the club's history Sacachispas and last week the program was about abortion. " Besides teaching, Mariano Molina is the coordinator of Free Time, a radio program of the Government of the City that use 12 middle schools that offer Bachelor of Social Communication, focusing on re-entry and 8 schools.
This is the second year of the project and has such good reception that Molina and his team also launched the REC Network (Community Schools), a school news agency. Both projects point to the same thing: "Let those who leave this school literate, are capable of producing a radio neighborhood and to build a community newspaper." At the moment, as Melina Menafra, today's school students this conclusion after Romania took the program: "We learned to paddling."
