House style: The logo and colour of the homepage differentiate the website from others it stands out and is easily recognised. The main articles are larger and toward the top of the page, this shows the importance and what they want their users to read.
Ideology: News-rounds values are to create an informative website that provides children with news across the world that they need to know and be educated on. They strive to create and provide a safe website for children to educate them on recent events and news that they need to do.
