eSafety
It is really important that everyone (both children and adults) knows how to stay safe online. Using the Internet sensibly is something that we encourage all children to do during their time at The Downs.
We have a separate site for children, TheDowns.ME that is a great starting point for learning online. Why not set it as your homepage on your computer?
Here are links to some other useful websites where you can learn more about being safe on the Internet.
Skoodle Children at The Downs regularly use Skoodle as a safe way of learning new ICT skills and communicating with friends. It's great! |
