Saturday 27th November 2021, marks the 21st anniversary of the tragic death of Damilola Taylor. We at Oliver Goldsmith School will always remember this young boy and the way in which he has shaped our community. Just one week before he died, Damilola wrote of his hope to one day save the world.
Please check out the Damilola Taylor Trust (link below), which was started by his father and is committed to providing young people with opportunities to play, learn and live their lives free of fear and violence and with optimism for a future where opportunities flourish.

The internet can be a place for children and young people to learn, spend time with friends, and have fun. As parents, we generally do everything we can to keep our children safe, like being careful when crossing a road and always wearing a helmet when cycling. But what can we do to protect them from inappropriate content online?
Please see the following link for advice and information about social media apps and how to keep children safe when using or being exposed to them.
Please speak to a member of staff if you are concerned about your child’s or another child’s use of the internet.
