It has come to our attention that there is currently a ‘game’ online called the Momo Challenge.

We just want to make you aware that this has been popping up online; both on social media and video platforms, including YouTube Kids.

Please be vigilant when your child is online at home.

If you feel you need to talk to your child, please do so.  We are not recommending that you do so unless you feel that there is a specific need.

This message is in response to concerns from outside of school.  We have not had an issues with this on our system.
