The mechanism

Holding Hands  have a leading teacher/animator in each of the schools.

These teachers  form the "editorial board," working together to select

the content of the monthly "journalino" and encouraging and

supporting the children from their classes to write articles.

There is a  chief-editor  to secure an overall checking of the content of

every monthly edition to draw attention to material or comments

potentially offensive to any one of the peoples involved.
