FROM LONDESBORO HCPS news All of us recognize that today we lived in a global village. The speed with which news, goods and people travel around the world brings residents in Hullett Township in close contact with London. Rome, Baghdad and Paris, for example, on a daily basis. Computers and the internet are a part of our shrinking world. However, along with the good of modem technology come risks. For whether we like to admit it or not. there are always those persons out there prepared to use each new advancement to their own unlawful purposes. It is not unusual to learn through the media of these criminal occurrences and we must constantly protect ourselves and our children. For that reason, Hullett Central Public School had a visit from Const. Don Shropshall and Dianna Doctor. Robin Kassies files this report of their visit: “On Thursday, Oct. 20. Const. Shropshall and Dianna Doctor came to my Grade 8 classroom to talk about internet safety. They spoke about the history ol the internet, the risks involved with its use and gave tips on how to stay safe. Asked why he finds it important to talk about internet safety. Const. Shropshall replied, “Because of the dangers involved with its use. Also il I didn’t come into schools to tell you of the risks, I wouldn't be doing my job." These are some of the tips he and Dianna gave us on how to stay safe. Never meet in person someone you have only chatted with on the internet because they could be someone you don’t think they are. Never give out your password for someone could log onto your account and mess with it. In the most severe case, you could then be lined for an illegal act someone made on your account. Don’t participate in behaviour that is wrong as depending on how wrong it is you could end up in jail. Don’t be fooled into thinking that every site you enter, every word you type on an outgoing e-mad is private. You should realize that the company that provides your internet service has a person who can tell everything you do. We did three Google searches to prove that point. After our searches, Dianna called the server. Jay, and asked him to find out the three recent searches she had done on her user name. It took Jay very little time to report back and tell us all of the three searches we had done. I hat proved the point that people with the right equipment and skill can see exactly what you do on the internet Our class thanks Const. Shropshall and Dianna Doctor for loining to our class We learned to be cautious about our searches for •xMincone can see every click we make Baptism at Londeshorough United Five children were presented by their parents for baptism at Londeshorough United Church on Sunday, Oct. 23.
