This term I have had the pleasure of hearing the online safety talk provided for year 5 and 6 provided by the police and accompanying Year 4 to watch the online safety play “In the Net”. Both of these events helped the children to reflect on the importance of staying safe whilst online. If you would like more information on how to help your children to stay safe online please visit www.thinkyouknow.org. Thank you to those of you who have sent back information on the best time and day for the parent/carer internet safety session. I will confirm the time and date shortly. We have signed up to a system which enables you to book your parent/carer evening slots online. We hope that this system will prove to be more convenient for you. I will be at parents evening and will be happy to receive feedback. Should you wish to make an appointment to see me about any specific matters; I have also included myself on the booking system.
