Internet Safety Day

Internet Safety Day

Yesterday was E-Safety Day and Year One really enjoyed participating in lots of different activities that teach us how to be safe on the internet. We learnt all about a penguin called Smartie and helped him to make the right choices when strange things he had never seen before popped up on his tablet such as adverts, the App Store, websites that his older brother had been on and a game that included a chat room. Together we discussed whether this has ever happened to us before when we are at home and talked about what the right thing to do would be. We even learnt a song... 'Before you tap and click, you have to stop and think and tell someone!'. The children then had a lovely visit from Year Three where the children shared information about being smart on the internet with Year One. After lots of discussion, Miss Lewis gave the children a quiz to test their knowledge of internet safety and we really impressed with how much we knew! After a busy day, it is safe to say that all of the children in Year One know that if they get an 'oh no' feeling in their tummy whilst on the internet, they have to tell a grown up.
