Through the Media Communication program, students at the Geraldton Composite High School run a live television broadcast called Knightline. The program provides students the opportunity to use their talents in planning, directing, and producing features and stories that are broadcast to the communities of Greenstone.  This talent has landed students involved in the Knightline program multiple regional and provincial awards in the Marion Drysdale Video Contest.
