Yesterday our year 5/6 children joined with Uppingham CE Primary school to visit Warning Zone. Warning Zone is a Leicester based charity dedicated to teaching life-skills and safeguarding children.

 

They aim to educate young people on understanding risks, peer pressure, anti-social behaviour and consequences. With the Internet and online presence being so widely accessed from young age, their new E-Safety zone also educates children on cyber-bullying, grooming, scammers and much more.

 

The children had a great day exploring taking risks and the consequences of their decisions. Mrs Larratt was particularly impressed with how well the children asked questions and thought about each scenario.

 

Hopefully the visit has equipped the children with the skills they need as they move towards secondary school and become more independent.
