SERIOUS DANGER OF HARM TO YOUR CHILD
Dear parents and carers,
It has been brought to my attention today about a dangerous viral game which is being spread through the internet.
The game 'Momo', which has children 'communicating' with a scraggly-haired woman with gaunt face and eyes popping from her head through WhatsApp and other forms of communicationincluding you tube videos of Peppa Pig, Minecraft, Roblox and many others.
This 'girl' then tells the user to harm themselves or they will be "cursed". The children are also sent disturbing images by 'Momo'. Momo tells children not to tell parents.
Please follow the links below to find out more:

I have had a look myself and found Momo to be an extremely disturbing image which will undoubtebly frighten children.
Please ensure parenting software is installed on your devices that allows the monitoring of apps that are installed.
The parent that I have spoken to today has stopped her child watching you tube completely to keep them safe.
Very best wishes,
Mrs Jenkins
