Transform the abstract world of the internet into a magical, manageable adventure with this “Digital Forest Safety” assembly bundle. Designed specifically for KS1 (Ages 5–7), this resource uses the gentle metaphor of a “Digital Forest” to teach pupils how to navigate screens safely, kindly, and wisely.

Perfect for Safer Internet Day, a computing unit launch, or as a proactive safeguarding resource for your Primary hall.
