Welcome to Herne Bay Junior School

Here is the link to this week's digital newsletter. We wish you a happy weekend.

On Monday, the whole school observed a two minute silence to remember all those who have lost their lives in conflicts around the world. Classes spent time learning about Remembrance Day, as well as writing poems in recognition. Children in the calm room also created their own beautiful poppies with Mrs Ashby

Our latest weekly newsletter

On Wednesday Mrs. Evett-Collins led an important assembly focusing on our pupils' use of and safety with social media. We are being made aware by children and parents of an increasing number of concerns related to behaviour on social media (most specifically, WhatsApp). The whole school assembly related to online safety- how to keep yourself safe online,  Y5 & Y6 then looked specifically at cyberbullying and the impact this can have on victims. The assembly PowerPoint is here for you to look at and use for discussion with your own child/ children if you wish. Please do ensure you check your children's use of social media on a regular basis.
