No chance, all seems to be games orientated.

that's one of the classic flash games, comes under various other names....what is the question you're asking.

 

Are you concerned about the animal welfare messenges the game presents to corruptable young minds......in which case you've got nothing to worry about with whack a penguin.

 

Is it eductonal ? No..

and if you don't not mind kids wasting their time playing online games in class then fine. But most of these types of site will be blocked.

Ah, the glorious Netsweeper page

[actech]

I have been told to block any websites like that. Something about the computers for school work and they can play games at home!

Even if it wasn't banned, I'm sure we would add it to the block list anyways.

I would ban it on our filtering server if it aint already banned, even if it aint got games on, just to be harsh as it doesnt relate to educational materials i would ban it.

Do you mean clubpenGuin? thats a Q up there....

 

The http://www.clubpenQuin.com site is actually a placeholder put in by the networksolutions hosting company, the games just come through as being part of their placeholder.

Can't view blocked by Brighton&Hove council!

[TechMonkey]

We've blocked it.

[alexknight]

I think the concensus of opinion is to ban it.

 

Can't let the little ones have too much fun.

Maybe I'm missing something here, but that site is quite plainly a games site, so the only question to answer is 'do you ban games sites at your school?'.
