PC Wayne's Internet Safety Advice

This afternoon, Year 6 were lucky enough to be paid a visit by PC Wayne to participate in an Internet Safety talk to learn about how we can stay safe whilst using our electronic devices online. Did you know that social media accounts should not be used by anyone under the age of 13? The key messages from the talk were: being sensible on our social media accounts if we do have one; ensuring that we do not share any personal information over the Internet such as our addresses and phone numbers and being aware of stranger danger! 

I didn't know that children under 13 shouldn't actually have social media accounts. Now I understand why, I will take greater care when using the Internet!

The Internet can be incredibly useful for staying in touch with friends and doing research but PC Wayne reminded us all that the Internet can also be a dangerous place for children and so we need to ensure children stay safe and alert when online.
