Letters have gone out to parents of P4-7 children offering places at our online safety workshop on Monday 12th June, 6-7:30pm.

In school we work with pupils to equip them with the skills to keep themselves safe online and we would like to invite you this event to raise awareness of the ways in which you can offer the same support at home.

This is being provided by ‘respectme’, Scotland’s anti-bullying service, to help parents explore the potential dangers and challenges with the online world that our children have access to.

It will cover:

• How young people use technology- the risks/challenges
• Popular social media apps- the pros and cons
• Practical advice on parental controls, privacy and safety settings with an opportunity to explore your own social media settings
• Talking to your children about keeping safe online

Places are limited so please return the letter ASAP if you would like to be involved.
