Cyber Workshop - January 2025

 Cyber Safety Workshop for Year 6: Empowering Students to Stay Safe Online

Our Year 6 students recently participated in an engaging and informative Cyber Safety Workshop aimed at equipping them with the knowledge and skills to navigate the digital world safely. The workshop, led by expert instructors from Essex Police and Fire rescue services, covered a wide range of important topics, including internet safety, privacy, responsible social media use, and how to handle cyberbullying.

The day began with an interactive presentation that highlighted the potential risks online, such as scams, inappropriate content, and the importance of safeguarding personal information. Students were encouraged to think critically about the websites and apps they use, and were introduced to practical tools for protecting their digital footprint.

One of the key discussions focused on how to create strong, secure passwords, and the importance of keeping personal information, like addresses and phone numbers, private. Students learned about the dangers of oversharing on social media and were given guidelines on how to stay safe while connecting with others online.

Throughout the workshop, students learned how to deal with cyberbullying and what steps to take if they encounter inappropriate online behaviour. They also learned how to report concerns and seek help from trusted adults or online resources.

The workshop was not just about safety but also about encouraging responsible online behaviour. Students discussed how their actions online can impact others and how they can make a positive difference in the digital community by showing kindness and respect.

A big thank you to all involved for making this workshop such a success, and for helping our Year 6 students become more responsible and informed digital citizens!

 Trip around Maldon - October 2024

On Friday 18^th October Year 6 went into Maldon to uncover some of Maldon's hidden historical gems. We were very privileged to have a tour of Moot Hall, discovering how it has had many different uses over the years from home to courthouse to council offices.  We went into All Saints Church and found out about the Washington stain glass window, discovered the burial plot of Edward Bright - the Fat Man of Maldon - and even had the opportunity to ring the church bells.  We finished off our day with a walk down to the Prom and a visit to the statue of Brythnoth - with a sneaky play on the newly refurbished Pirate Ship thrown in for good measure!

All children were impeccably behaved and a credit to the school.
