Thank you to the parents who turned out last night for the cyber safety evening with John Parsons.

It was a very informative evening, and John led us through some topical issues about what our children are doing online. My takeaway was reflecting on how much sleep our kids are actually getting, device time needs to be scaled back to ensure that at night time kids have enough time off the device to let their brain settle before sleeping. John also gave excellent advice about Snapchat. It's hard to get rid of Snapchat, so instead create times of the day when the family is device free, for example at the dining room table, in their bedroom etc.
