Year 2 visit from Community Safety Officer

Today, Year 2 had a visit from local Community Safety Officer, Lindsay King, who is based at Altrincham Police Station.

Mrs King shared a very informative presentation with the children about online safety.

Mrs King asked the children which electronic devices they used and what they used them for. She explained the different uses and functions of various apps and how old you need to be to actually have your own account. Mrs King talked about various topics such as cyber bullying, inappropriate content, spam and internet usage. The children also shared their own experiences with Mrs King. The presentation was extremely informative and the children took home many safety messages such as never giving out personal information, only playing on age appropriate games, never talking to strangers online and how to ignore spam messages.The children listened intently to the whole of the presentation and will remember how to have fun and stay safe online.
