The theme for Safer Internet Day 2010 is 'Think before you post'. It is hoped that throughout the week, professionals, parents and young people across the country will be engaged and learn about internet safety through various means.

Activities from CEOP which will be provided through the www.thinkyouknow.co.uk website will include :

• a new cartoon film for 5 - 7 year olds which will be launched in time for SID10.
• two competitions for 8 - 10 year olds and 11 -16 year olds, to create a video focusing on the message, 'think before you post'. Entries can be from an individual or a group. Winners will gain a prize and their entry will be streamed on the thinkuknow site and the CEOP You Tube channel. Schools should start thinking through their entries. They can be a piece to camera, a song / rap, drama or something really inventive!
• specially trained volunteers from Microsoft, Visa and O2 will be visiting schools throughout the country to deliver the thinkuknow programme to young people. Schools will be able to register on the thinkuknow website for a volunteer to visit their school.
• the thinkuknow website will advertising national and regional activities. If you have an event that you are planning to run, please let CEOP know so they can add it to the map!
• the resources portal on the thinkuknow site will be revised to make it a permanent feature. The portal will signpost a wide range of resources produced by different organisations, both national and regional. and act as a one stop shop for all issues relating to internet safety,
