Today all of the children had a wonderful day celebrating Safer Internet Day and learning all about staying safe online.

The day started with a visit from Westfields Junior School’s  ‘Digital Leaders’ who led a very special e-safety themed assembly and explained this year’s theme ‘Inspiring Change’.

Following this, throughout the day the children listened to stories and scenarios and discussed what the characters should do if they feel worried about something they have seen or heard on-line. The children completed a number of actives from online safety posters to designing new technology for the future.

Each of our Year 2 classes even had the opportunity to visit Westfields Junior School to work with Year 5 and look at how technology and the internet has changed over time by creating a technology timeline. We all reminded ourselves about the important message of talking with a trusted adult if we are worried about something we see or hear online, whist having fun!

Such a great extended curriculum opportunity with an important safety message.
