Birtley East Community Primary School

Bullying Workshop Y5

Published: 4 Oct '24

This afternoon, Year 5 were visited by PC Stephen Bowman, who talked to us about bullying and how to deal with it, including who to tell. We talked about why bullying is wrong and how it affects people in different ways. 
We also talked about the dangers of social media and making sure it is used responsibly.   We were surprised to learn the age limits for the apps that we use a lot - 13 years old!
PC Bowman talked about how easy it is for scammers to get our information and how we need  to be careful what we share online.

We will be careful how we spend our time online, including making sure we don't talk to people we don't know or agree to meet them. We know not to click on links that promise prizes.
