Online Safety Starts at Home

As children spend more time online: gaming, watching videos, and using apps, it is essential that online safety is reinforced at home as well as at school.

While pupils learn how to stay safe in school, families play a crucial role in setting boundaries, monitoring use, and talking openly about online behaviour.

We strongly encourage parents and carers to familiarise themselves with current online risks and practical ways to keep children safe. Simple steps such as parental controls and agreed screen‑time routines can make a real difference.

👉 A Family Guide to Online Safety (2026)

We wanted to share this free guide with you which offers clear, practical advice to help families support safe and positive online habits at home.

Year 1 & 2

Year 1 and 2 have been enjoying reading Paddington and had great fun creating their own Paddington bears using empty toilet rolls and paper.

Just look at his dashing blue coat and colourful buttons! Making the hats was the biggest challenge, but everyone rose to it—and the results are some of the cutest Paddingtons you’ll ever see.

Year 3 & 4

The children have been learning about ancient civilisations in topic and as part of our writing unit.

They have chosen either Ancient Maya or Ancient Sumer as a civilisation to persuade others to visit. To deepen their knowledge, they were given clues in our topic lesson and had to locate some key ancient civilisations on a world map. They used lots of geography and logical skills to make their decisions and realised the importance of rivers and water sources to the ancient civilisations.

Well done everyone!

Year 5 & 6

Year 5 and 6 enjoyed an impromptu art session inspired by the Artemis II space mission.

Children chose between creating pastel planets or building atmospheric backgrounds by gently dabbing paint with tissue, then drawing an astronaut over the finished scene. The different techniques produced bold textures and colours, resulting in a striking contrast between background and foreground.

They were so good that we have displayed them!

PE days for Year 5 & Year 6 are Thursdays and Fridays
