We are looking forward to welcoming our second parliamentary visitor of the year - our local MP, Daniel Zeichner. Mr. Zeichner will run a whole school assembly to explain about who he is and what his role entails, before moving to a question and answers session with Year 6. Mr. Zeichner already met our Year 6's when they went to the Houses of Parliament last term, so this is a chance for them to ask some follow up questions when they are on home turf! 

7th February:                    Safer Internet Day        09:00 - 15:15                 Whole School 

Safer Internet Day 2023 will take place on 7th February 2023, with celebrations and learning based around the theme: 'Want to talk about it? Making space for conversations about life online'.

Coordinated in the UK by the UK Safer Internet Centre, the celebration sees thousands of organisations get involved to promote the safe, responsible and positive use of digital technology for children and young people. 

In the UK, we are celebrating by putting children and young people's voices at the heart of the day and encouraging them to shape the online safety support that they receive. That is why we are asking parents, carers, teachers, government, policymakers, and the wider online safety industry to take time to listen to children and young people and make positive change together.
