Stay Safe at School
If you're worried or have a concern, talk to someone you trust.
Here are some people you can talk to:
- Your teacher: They can help you talk about your feelings.
- School staff: They're there to help you and keep you safe.
- The Principals: They're the people in charge of the school and Dr. Doyle & Mrs Collett will always keep you safe.
- Everyone at St Francis: We are all trained to look after the safety of all the children at school.
Remember, it's okay to ask for help. If you're feeling unsafe or worried, don't keep it to yourself. Talk to someone you trust and they can help you.
We have a Safeguarding Policy just for children that explains how we work to keep you safe and what you can do if you ever feel you need help, or to speak to a trusted adult. Click the link below to access this:

What is Online Safety?
Staying safe online means being aware of the risks and taking steps to protect yourself. Just like you wear a helmet when you ride a bike, you need to be smart about what you do online.
Key Tips for Staying Safe Online
- Don't Talk to Strangers: Never share personal information with someone you don't know online. This includes your full name, address, phone number, or school.
- Strong Passwords: Use strong passwords that are hard to guess. A good password has a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols.
- Think Before You Share: Be careful about what you post online. Remember, once something is online, it's hard to delete.
- Tell a Grown-Up: If something makes you feel uncomfortable online, talk to a trusted adult like your parent or teacher.
- Use Safe Websites: Only visit websites that you know are safe. Avoid clicking on links from emails or messages from people you don't know.
