![](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/IMG_1378.jpeg)Over the last two weeks, Year 5 have considered the risks of age inappropriate content and the role that social media, gaming, streaming and adverts can play in exposing children to unsuitable and upsetting content. We have also explored horror video games in relation to Halloween and how children should be aware of jump scares, violent content and potential online interactions while experiencing such content.
