Celebrating Safer Internet Day - February 2020
Class 3 talked about the potential risks of mobile phones and the internet.
They talked about how we should not be sharing information, photographs and passwords that are personal to us and that we don't want others to see.
The class were very knowledgeable about the do's and don'ts of using the internet.
The class presented their work in posters, leaflets and quizzes.
Safer Internet Day 2020
Safer Internet Day 2020
Pupils drew pictures about what they use the internet for. They then they went through Smartie the Penguin story talking about what they should do if something happens on the internet (strange picture/ mean comments/ to buy buttons) and they sang a song to remind them of the rules for Internet Safety Day 2020.
On Safer Internet Day 2020, Class one children created some fictional online profiles of themselves. We then discussed what information is safe to share online or not.
Our JOSOs (Junior online safety officers) attended their first meeting with other local schools to begin to learn about how to keep themselves safe when using the internet. They will be leading this work throughout the school by completing the missions set by LCSB.
The NSPCC worked with all of the school on how to keep safe
Years five and six learnt how to ride their bikes safely on the road.

SID (Safer Internet Day) Tuesday 5th February
Reception learning how to stay safe online
SID (Safer Internet Day) We focused on giving and seeking permission to share information online and looked at a range of everyday scenarios to help with this. The children then decided which answer around the room best matched how they felt about it and explained their reasons.
In class three pupils were told in the morning that they were going to play a game and on the post-it on their desk, they needed to write down the name of their pet, their favourite colour, their favourite sport and the names of their parents. This they obediently did. The 'game' was to then go and give their personal details to other people around school to see if they could guess who it belonged to. Towards the end of the day, once asked if Mrs Cockram could take the details given and share them with other Heads, the pupils said no that they did not want their personal information going out of school and they did not give their permission.
People often appear really nice on the internet, and many are, but they are strangers, just because we have shared a game and they have told us their name does not mean that we know them. We do not give strangers our details in real life so do not do it on the internet. We do not know what they plan to do with our information - keep it safe - don't tell!
A second assembly from our JRSOs (Junior Road Safety Officers)
Our Ambassadors for challenging Hate Crime were awarded certificates and thanked by LCC for their hard work - this all links in with International Schools and being a Silver Rights and Respecting school

School Council Report Spring Term 1 E-Safety
Dear Mission Control
The internet safety topic was very successful. We all took part in achieving this. Now the school understands how to stay safe on the internet. The school took part in every activity we did and had fun whilst learning. The school council learnt new things too. The questionnaire we sent out was about what pupils thought they could share online. The results were that most children understood. I think we need to make children more aware of the age limit for social media. We will put the findings below of how many people have social media in each year group:
Year one - 1
Year two - 0
Year three - 5
Year four - 4
Year five - 3
Year six – 6
Yours faithfully
GBA School Council
The e-safety questionnaire
We celebrated SID (Safer Internet Day) on Tuesday 6th February, inviting parents in at the end of the day to see what we had been learning. An envelope full of up to date information was also sent home for parents.
The E-safety team have completed their first mission...
Dear Mission Control,
We have completed everything for the YouTube awareness activity. The pupils understand the dangers of YouTube which is great news. When we started mission control we sent out questionnaires which helped the students, School council made the questionnaires.
We also wrote scripts for the assembly which then made a great impact on the other children in the assembly as we now knew what we were going to say. We also noticed that the children were participating in all the questions as productively as possible. Also the children were giving good quality answers and putting their hand up if they a question that needed to be answered.
We also made a great film which helped students understand about internet safety, also the parents learnt things and they understood the rules, as most students thought that the rules of YouTube was that you had to be 8 to 10 years old to make a YouTube video which is not in the policy for YouTube. This helped them understand more which was a great help to this school. The whole School Council are glad that was successful.
We started the Mission Control project because we thought it would help the school and it definitely has. We are going to do many more Mission Control activities just like this. The whole School Council is glad that this was a success. We found this extremely fun to take part in this project; this really shows how children can work together as one!
Yours sincerely, School Council/ Gipsey Bridge Academy.
Our JRSOs are holding a competition in school; they launched it in an assembly.

E-Safety Ambassadors
This year we are working collaboratively with schools in Kyra East on E-Safety. Pupils are gathering together with Internet Safety Specialists, exploring the skills and knowledge needed to keep us safe on the internet. The E-Safety Ambassadors are then tasked with disseminating this information to the rest of the school.
We cannot wrap our children in bubble wrap; we need to equip them with the skills needed to keep themselves safe.
The group will meet again at Spilsby Academy in October 2017.
