SAFER INTERNET DAY 2020

23rd Feb 2020

FS2	The children in FS2 learned about keeping their identity private online. Though a difficult concept for our younger children to understand they talked about keeping information private and to always ‘Tell! Tell! Tell!’ if anything makes them uncomfortable!
Y1	The children of Y1 learned what to do if they see something that they do not like online. They learned that they must also ‘Tell! Tell! Tell!’ a grown up too!
Y2	The children in Y2 made lists of the personal information that they should not post online. They learned that people can steal their personal information and their accounts can be ‘hacked’. They also talked about telling a grown up if they are worried and blocking those who approach them online.
Y3	In Y3 the children learned that sometimes people they do not know may contact them. They explored what they should do if this happens. They created posters to demonstrate their learning.
Y4	In Y4 the children created their own videos about using the internet responsibly. These videos cover downloading apps, uploading images to the internet and being friends online with people they know.
Y5	The children in Y5 talked about why it is important to be kind to others when they online; when messaging; and when using social media. They also explored why their privacy is important and how it helps them to stay safe when online.
Y6	In Y6 the children explored the importance of using social media safely and appropriately and why certain social media sites like WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat and TikTok have age limits. They debated the reasons for having age restrictions and also discussed what they should do if they are contacted by someone they do not know online.
