On Friday 3rd
February, we took part in ‘Safer Internet Day’, although the national day is on
Tuesday 6th February. We really enjoyed some activities such as making
posters and having discussion sessions.
Firstly, we had lessons which
were different for each year group. Throughout the school we learnt about the
dangers and about the positive uses of the internet. In Year 5, we talked about social media websites,
apps and online games as part of our work. Also, in the afternoon we had an
assembly about internet safety. We continued to talk about different online
games and websites which are potentially dangerous. We talked about the
potential dangers of these but also how we can make sure we use them for
positive things.
We
already know so much about internet safety but with the help our teachers, we
learnt a lot more. One of the most important things that we learnt was what to
do if we find ourselves in danger online or if something just doesn’t feel
right.
Here are a few tips for staying safe online:
1.
Speak to an adult at home about what you do
online.
2.
If you are in danger online, you should speak
to an adult you trust or report it through the CEOP report button on the Pupil
Page on the school website.
3.
Check your privacy settings on social media.
4.
Always ask before you share images of photos
of other people.
