SMARTPHONE-FREE CHILDHOOD
Earlier this week an email co-signed by the head teachers of nearly 30 local primary schools expressing support for the Smartphone-free childhood campaign went home to our parents.
Research has shown there are many negative risks when children are exposed to smartphones, which are highly addictive, including poor mental health and depression, exposure to harmful content, including pornography and inappropriate material, reduced attention spans and depleted social skills.
As such, from September 2025, Bayford CofE Primary will be a smartphone-free school for our students, and we encourage all our parents to delay giving their children a smartphone until they reach the age of 14.
Parents who believe their children need to bring a phone into school are welcome to purchase a non-internet connected phone or communication device for their children to bring in.
Already, more than 10% of our Bayford parents have signed the pact for a smartphone-free childhood for their children. This movement can only happen with support from parents and everyone working together to resist pressure from children and their peers to get a smartphone earlier.
We encourage all parents to consider the request and to sign the pact. By working together, a supportive and understanding commitment to providing the right technology at the right time to our children can be established.
You can sign the pact here: hertfordshireparentpact.smartphonefreechildhood.co.uk
If you have any questions about the risks involved with smartphones, or would like to explore alternatives, please reach out to the school who would be happy to discuss this issue.

YEAR 3 MATHS CHALLENGE
On this hot afternoon, some of our young mathematicians from Class 2 took part in the HfL Year 3 Maths Challenge.
They worked together as a team, solving problems that made them think outside of the box. They were challenged to use the maths they knew, but to manipulate it in a different way.
They all did brilliantly, and will find out next week if they’ve made it through to the final. Fantastic work, Year 3!

VEHICLES
Our first week back has seen Class 1 getting creative with their DT ‘Vehicles’ project.
It is super seeing so many individual designs as well as the detail that the children have been putting into their finished projects.
Fantastic work, Class 1!

HALF TERM!
The sun is shining and there were ice creams galore at pick up today, ahead of our week off next week.
Enjoying the good weather, all classes took part in TWIGs earlier this half term. Maybe there will be more time spent outside over your holiday this coming week.
We hope you all have a restful break, and look forward to seeing you back on Tuesday 3rd June!
