Internet Safety Day
– 7th February 2017
We take E-safety seriously throughout the
year but Internet Safety Day on Tuesday 7th February will provide us
with an opportunity to have a more in-depth focus on E-safety in each class and
share some of the children’s learning with you. Over the next two weeks pupils
will be learning about how to stay safe on the internet. Their learning and
activities will be relevant to their age group. We believe that it’s important
for children and their parents to be aware of the dangers on the internet, to
recognise any inappropriate use of the internet, and to know what to do should
they find themselves involved in any situation. You are invited to join us on
Tuesday 7th February for a morning assembly (9.10am to approximately
9.50am) when each class will share with you what they have learnt. This will
then be followed by a Powerpoint presentation for parents and carers with time
afterwards for questions and discussion. As part of Internet Safety Day we also
plan for pupils in Years 4, 5 and 6 to take part in the OCC Cybersafety Survey.
Annual Survey
Request from the Governing Body
Each pupil should have brought home via
their book bag a questionnaire from the Governing Body which they hope that
parents will complete for each child
at school. The Governors are keen to hear your views on how well the school is
meeting your expectations, what we do well and your thoughts on what needs to
be done differently. Thank you.

Thank you to the many families in Class 2

A reminder that Class 2 have their final swimming session on the first Monday
after the February Holiday (20th February). It is not too late to
