This unit is called Online Safety. It is aimed at teaching basic online safety and digital literacy skills. In this unit, children learn about the potential dangers in the online world and what basic steps we all need to take in order to have positive digital experiences.

Visit from PCSO

On the 23^rd we are having a visit from a Police Community Support Officer who will speak to the children about safety and watch a story called PC Ben being read by David Bullock, who is the PCSO who wrote the book.
