I have mentioned the wonderful site Superclubs Plus before on this blog and my own ‘MrWarner.com’ blog. The site, created by Intuitive Media is a social networking site for children, giving them access to email, forums, web site creation tools, competitions, surveys, ICT challenges, author interviews and much MUCH more… all within a safe moderated environment.

The children at my school have been using Superclubs Plus for many years and it is always incredibly popular. We use it reguarly to develop the children’s ICT skills and to support our work on Internet safety. If you haven’t tried it out with your primary pupils (aged from 6 to 11), then I highly recommend it.

If your children are too old for Superclubs Plus, why not try out Gold Star Cafe (suitable for ages 11 to 14). It’s just like Superclubs Plus, but has lots more ‘cool stuff’ for older pupils to enjoy.

Intuitive Media run a number of safe social learning networks for children (including Superclubs Plus and Goldstar Cafe). The children at my own school love using Superclubs Plus to send email, design their own webpages, chat in forums and meet other children in the moderated environment provided by the service.

Intuitive Media and Scholastic have just announced the launch of the first book written by the children of SuperClubsPLUS and GoldStarCafe. Thousands of children took part and submitted stories illustrating their talent and creativity. The children wrote their stories at school and at home.

The competition will run again later in the year, and Superclubs will be having ‘Hot Seats’ where children can ask questions to a number authors, receiving replies (almost) instantly via their messaging service. Amazing!
