Newspaper creating software ?

Apart from the usual suspects - Word, QuarkXpress, Publisher & Scribus, can anyone point me in the right direction in regards to a basic newspaper style writing application ? Failing that - some good templates ?
Nothing too complicated as it will be for youngsters........

I always found Serif Page Plus to be a good product. It's available for a free download from their website.

Ohh, actually yeah - the serif suite has some good templates for that stuff - their web design package is very kid-friendly too

Or try this bad-boy Publish your own newspaper

I'm back at junior school again!

Now there was a fantastic program (rose tinted glasses) - can I have Dread Dragon Droom too?
