As the country celebrated national Safer Internet Day last week, two students from FCJ Bunclody were working hard to promote awareness around the importance of safe internet usage through their involvement as Webwise Youth Panelists.
Ben Holmes, from Kiltealy, and Ciara Doyle, from Finchogue, are both on the youth panel which helps students manage online wellbeing.
The two students are at the forefront of the work carried out in the school to promote internet safety and last week Ben spoke on Ireland AM about the work the two of them do and of its importance to students generally in helping them become aware of the dangers of the internet.

New Delhi [India], February 19 (ANI/NewsVoir): The internet was envisioned by its creators as a platform for redefining public spaces by making them accessible to all.
Slowly and gradually, it transformed not only how interactions happen but how businesses, schools, and governments function. It has been one of the key drivers of social evolution in the Information Age.
The internet facilitates making personal stories globally accessible and global news accessible locally. The entire world is now only two clicks away. In the last year itself due to the pandemic, there was a 70 per cent surge in the usage of the internet.
PUPILS have relied heavily on the use of the internet lately - particularly with the introduction of home schooling - and so one school decided to take part in Safer Internet Day. The national day, held on Tuesday, February 9, is organised by Insafe in February of each year to promote safer and more responsible use of online technology. This years theme was ‘An internet we trust: exploring reliability in the online world’. Greenfylde C of E First School, both at home and in the classroom, celebrated the day together and learnt about how to use the internet safely. The day began with a video assembly, and then children took part in sessions and explored the devices we use to go onto the internet and how we can access safe, reliable information online.
