Mr Mills and Miss Clover would like to extend a huge thank you, to all parents and students who have met with us this term. These meetings are extremely important not only for us, but the children who enjoy enormously sharing with you and celebrating their successes. If you have not been able to attend so far, then please book a space and pop in for a learning conversation. We look forward to meeting with you soon.
During Term One and Two, the students in Year 3 will begin using Think.com and the Internet to help them learn together about their topic ”Life in Tudor Bristol.”
Our view of Internet use is like going on a school visit, and like school visits your permission is needed before we can take the students out. Think.com as part of student internet use is slightly different as it is like an online classroom, and as such has other rules and guidelines which must be agreed to before we can allow our students to use it.
The Internet Three Bees
We have written up our Internet guidelines and student/parent agreement statements in a very familiar way, to help you understand how importantly we take Internet and e Safety. Our Internet Three Bees can be read or downloaded by following this link . On this page you will also find other links to really useful sites, that will help you explore and reinforce the ideas you need to remember in helping you to keep your child safe on the Internet. E Safety we believe is largely common sense, and about teaching good working habits, we hope in reading our material that you agree, and will help us to help your children as we learn together using the Internat as a learning tool.
This term your child will bring home agreement forms, that we would like you to share and talk through with them. Attached to these will be a copy of the “Internet Three Bees”, that you should keep and perhaps display by your home computer, and two forms that we would like you to sign and return to school as soon as possible.
Thank you for your time.
Mr Mills and Miss Clover
