Good morning boys and girls…the theme for this week’s assembly is staying safe online.
Safer Internet Day is celebrated globally in February each year to promote the safe and positive use of digital technology for all children and young people.
Safer Internet Day celebrates the amazing range of information and opportunities online, and its potential to inform, connect and inspire us, whilst also looking at how young people can separate fact from fiction.
Primary 4 – 7 pupils can tune in to the virtual assembly using the link below.
Now watch this clip…
Primary 1 – 3 pupils can watch this video story of Detective Digiduck. This story will encourage young children to start to think about online content, and help them to understand that what they read or see online might be true, untrue, or someone’s opinion.
