Safer Internet Day 2024

Tuesday 6th February 2024 is Safer Internet Day. This year’s theme is ‘Inspiring change? Making a difference, managing influence and navigating change online.’ Every class will spend time discussing the importance of staying safe online as well as completing some fun activities to reinforce this message. It would be great if you could have a chat with your child/children about internet safety and what they can do to ensure they stay safe online.
