Question Is this bad for SEO? header (redirect) on index page?

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if anyone could tell me if this would be bad SEO practice to have my main index page jump to a different directory, example:

<?php
header("Location: http://www.webdesignhq.com/news/");
exit;
?>

I want my main index.php page display the /news/ directory, and don't want to install the news app in my main root folder since it would be quite messy...

Is this the right way to do so without sacrificing SEO?

Thanks in advance!
