Safer Internet Day 2025
Too good to be true? Protecting yourself and others from scams online!
We celebrated Safer Internet Day in February. We learnt all about online scams in our whole school assembly and carried on our learning with fun and exciting classroom activities, including a BBC live lesson. The children came up with some fabulous posters to demonstrate what they had learnt about keeping themselves safe online and protecting themselves from online scams.
