The project goals were written by the students and teachers and include:
- to encourage European students to develop cross national links
- to use cultural differences as a form of educational enrichment and unity
- to maximise the use of information technology through the Internet
- to establish the newspaper as an integral part of the schools' long term curriculum
- to develop student centred responsibility for their newspaper
Up to January 2006 there have been 26 editions. Every edition seems to be longer than the one before, the present edition carrying 59 articles ranging from the dangers of bird flu, through Britain's "special relationship" with America (does it exist?) to the exploits of Valentino Rossi on his Yamaha.
