To celebrate Safer Internet Day, Year 3 took part in a special live BBC lesson all about staying safe and smart online. The session helped us think about how we use the internet every day and why it’s important to make good choices whenever we are using technology.

One of the key messages we explored was the importance of checking information—especially when it comes from AI tools. We learned that although AI can be very helpful, it doesn’t always get things right. The children practised spotting mistakes, asking questions, and thinking carefully before believing or sharing information they see online.

The class showed brilliant curiosity and gave thoughtful examples of times when they needed to check facts. Overall, it was a valuable session that reminded us all to stay critical, kind, and safe when using the internet.
