• 'The Two Johns' Internet Safety Workshops

  Thu 29 Feb 2024

  The children of St Joseph's welcomed 'The Two Johns' to our school today for a packed day of internet safety workshops. They worked closely with pupils, parents and staff to ensure the St Joseph's community are aware of the risks of the internet. Through fun and engaging games and quizzes 'The Two Johns' were able to test what we already knew and guide us in the right direction. Children across the school were able to demonstrate their excellent knowledge of e-safety and left the sessions feeling even more informed and secure with what to do should something worry them online.
