The Digital Leaders held an informative and fun workshop with all S3 and S5 pupils and launched a recruiting drive for more pupils to become involved in the programme.
They presented a powerpoint on what is involved, the types of initiative that Leaders could become involved in, and then finished off with team-building exercises.
Calderhead High School’s Digital Leaders (S5 pupils Kaitlin Smith, Michaela Hughes, Alana Mcleod, Ceinwyn Barr and Yoana Vankova) organised Safe Internet Day Assemblies and workshops for S1-S3 pupils on Monday 30th and Tuesday 31st January.
The groups undertook a number of activities including a Mind Map station and informational video clips. The Leaders were able to see how much knowledge the younger year groups had of the dangers of the internet and how to be safe online by undertaking a quiz as a year group. This was a great way to get everyone interacting as the quiz was not just a “yes or no” answer – the participants also got involved in a great discussion about internet safety.
