Mobile phones and the internet are now part of your child's life and link them to the wide world. You want your child to be safe and avoid cyberbullying. Come along and find out how YOU can help to keep your child safe on line and with social media.

Bluestone School Hall, Thursday 30 March 7pm-8.30pm

Free to Bluestone families including grandparents. 

We are thrilled to have Shirley Booth from Bridging the Gap present to us information you NEED TO KNOW. 

To keep your children safe we need joint knowledge and a joint approach between home and school. The facts might shock you, but many simple solutions are in your hands. This could be one of the greatest things you do for your child this year! Please spread the word to other Bluestone families and encourage them along. 

Our Home & School will provide supper during the evening.
