Internet Safety
Our children love to use the internet, especially to play games. The way they start using devices and the guidance they are given at this young age can set them on the right path to being safer in later life.
At Boyne Hill Infant School, our children are taught about safe Internet use from Foundation Stage 2 upwards.
Alongside curriculum linked, teacher-led safety talks and activities, we hold a focused Internet Safety Day and use the short videos below to reinforce 5 Top Tips to stay safe online.

Information for Parents & Carers
We believe that parents and carers can have the greatest positive impact by carrying on the discussion about Internet safety with their own children at home. The link below will take you to the NSPCC Advice for Families area, where you will find helpful information and useful resources:
An organisation called 'Parentzone' has created a great magazine for parents and carers to help them understand how young people use the internet and provide help. You can download your own copy below. It is a large file, so it may take a little time to download.
