Online Safety

The internet is great fun and is really useful. We can use it to learn, be creative, chat to friends, send pictures, play games and for so many more fun and exciting things!

We are proud to have achieved the Leicestershire Schools E-Safety Award and continue to educate our children and families in how to use and enjoy the internet properly.
