Safer Internet Day - February 25, by Mr Jolly

Date: 14th Feb 2025 @ 12:56pm

Safer Internet Day is the UK’s biggest celebration of online safety. Each year Safer Internet Day covers online issue or themes that speak to the things young people are seeing and experiencing online.

The 2025 Safer Internet Day theme is: ‘Too good to be true? Protecting yourself and others from scams online.'

Safer Internet Day is co-ordinated in the UK by the UK Safer Internet Centre in partnership with Childnet.

We watched the live lesson and then followed it up with two activities. The first was to identify whether adverts or messages were phishing/a scam or not a scam. The second involved creating random 'hard to guess' passwords  by rolling a dice to select words, numbers and symbols.

Making a model digestive system, by Miss Robinson

Date: 10th Feb 2025 @ 8:00am

This term, we are learning all about the digestive system! We decided to create our own model of the digestive system so we could understand how it works. First, we began crunching up some crackers in a bag which acted as our mouth and teeth, we then added some water to act as our saliva. This was then passed through our oesophagus (or toilet roll) into our stomach. Our stomach was filled with lemon juice to act as our stomach acid. We then passed our mixture through some tights to act as our intestines and squeezed out all of the liquid before pushing it through two cups. We had so much fun!
