Internet Safety
Children at our school use the internet on a regular basis as part of their learning. In school, we have regular online safety activities to remind children of the importance of keeping themselves safe online.
Our children are very tech-savvy and it is important that you as parents understand how to keep your children safe online.
Below are a few links and some very useful information regarding online safety for parents, carers and children:
