Good afternoon everyone!

Digital gaming has become increasingly popular among children and so we would like to send out a reminder of the importance for both parents and children in understanding appropriate online behaviour.

It is important that children are accessing content that is age-appropriate to them and this includes many of the online gaming platforms that they are using. I have attached some guides of the games that are becoming increasingly popular – please note the age restrictions for these as some of them are much higher than primary-aged children, including 18+.

We ask that you also support the work that we are doing with the children around online-safety by continuing to be vigilant by monitoring your children’s behaviour and conduct when online – particularly swearing, and using inappropriate or unkind language.

You can find more information about online safety here: https://hwb.gov.wales/keeping-safe-online/in-the-know/

If you would like any further information about online safety or age restrictions, please feel free to contact us. By fostering an open dialogue and encouraging responsible gaming practices, we can help cultivate a positive online environment for your children!

Many thanks
Miss Mansell
