Ballynahinch Primary School and Nursery Unit

Dear Parent,

I have received a number of reports from parents and pupils concerning what is called 'The Momo Challenge'. Please rest assured that we take all aspects of Safeguarding and Child Protection extremely seriously and have measures and policies in place to protect all our pupils.

I have contacted C2K, who provide our internet, to ask that they block any searches for the term through our school network and all our staff are aware of the term and what the 'challenge' entails and will reassure any children that are worried about it. 

Could I ask you to ensure that your security settings are robust on all internet connected devices to minimalise the chances of your child being exposed to this latest online craze.

Thank you for your continuing support.

Yours sincerely,

Mr M. Moore

Principal
