POLICE community support officers from Amesbury visited a primary school to speak to pupils about staying safe online and tackling hate crime.

Earlier this month, PCSO House and PCSO Morphy spent time at Shrewton Primary School, delivering two sessions to Key Stage 2 children.

The talks focused on online safety and understanding hate crime, with officers encouraging pupils to ask questions and take part in discussions.

Officers said the children were fully engaged and took part in “really interesting conversations” during the sessions.

After the classroom talks, pupils were given the chance to explore a police van, offering a hands-on look at policing equipment and daily life on patrol.

Wiltshire Police said school visits form an important part of neighbourhood policing, helping young people understand the law, stay safe and build positive relationships with officers.
