Welcome back!
The last newsletter seems a long time ago now – before Christmas! I hope you all had a great break over the holiday season and spent lots of time with your families. It’s been a ‘bitty’ start back to the new year but after this week children have settled down a little more and got back into the swing of things.
We’re trying a new newsletter layout for the new year – please let me know what you think.
See you again next week.

Updated Android Controls
From the beginning of December 2025 Google released new and updated parental controls for Android devices. These include:
• Set the amount of screen time that can be spent on a device each day to help establish healthy habits.
• Set downtime schedules to automatically lock the device at night to ensure restful sleep without distraction.
• Control app usage by limiting time spent on specific apps, or blocking apps entirely.
• Add more time by granting extra minutes when a time limit is reached, or to extend a scheduled break.
Internet Matters have a handy Android guide for parents which you can find through the link below.
