Today a group of 5 Year 6 pupils went to OpenZone @ The Word to take part in a cyber security event. We were joined by some other schools from South Tyneside. The iBelong Cyber Event showed us how important password security is. We learned about how passwords are hacked, and had a go at cracking the code on the BBC Microbit. We learned about AI – Artificial Intelligence, and how computers learn. Our teams chose anonymous user names in the quiz to check how impersonation or identity theft can damage our reputation. We were Burger, Apple and Ronald!
It was a fun day, and we did really well at the quiz at the end.
