In the news / current challenges... 

(1) Whatsapp Groups

We are currently working with the children on the use of Whatsapp. Over the last few years we have responded to some issues with Whatsapp and hope that by weaving this into the assemblies and the online safety teaching that we can educate the children on sensible use of this particular app. 
We also delivered face-to-face sessions to parents in year 5 and year 6. An adapted and recorded version of the presentation is below along with some posters and quick reference material.
