Pokemon Go
Pokemon Go is an app that can be downloaded to smart phones or tablet computers. It is a type of augmented reality game where children roam around parks, shopping centres and other places finding virtual pets.
Your children will most likely already know about Pokemon Go and may be using it. We do not want to stop our children using this fun new technology game; however we want them to use it safety. Paedophiles are already using this game to meet children.
