9R have been looking at internet safety and also how using social media can have an impact on your mental wellbeing. We all agreed that it is really important to get a good nights sleep and using social media like tik tok, Instagram, Facebook can all have a negative impact at bedtime as it keeps your brain alert instead of going to sleep. We talked about how we can stay safe and things we can do if we see anything that upsets us. We learned about Harvey’s Law which protects young people from trolls and ensures that the unkind people that are trolling or cyber bullying are prosecuted.

We have enjoyed learning about this and we are all going to make an effort to avoid social media and using electronics at bedtime.
