Safer Internet Day

On Tuesday our school celebrated Safer Internet Day. Safer Internet Day is a global day of action that brings together communities, families, schools, and organisations from more than 180 countries to raise awareness about online safety and work toward a safer internet.

In Australia, the eSafety Commissioner leads this important day, and this year, we’re calling on all Australians to help make the internet a safer, more positive place.

Supporting Safer Internet Day is just one action you can take. Everyone can take practical steps, including:

• starting online safety conversations

• engaging in online safety education

• practicing respectful behaviour online

• reporting online abuse

• sharing online safety resources.

eSafetyOffice offers free webinars for parents & caregivers to gain knowledge, skills & tools to support their children to have safe online experiences. Parents/caregivers can register here: http://www.esafety.gov.au/parents/webinars

Parents/caregivers are also reminded that students in Year 4-6’s school iPads can be managed at home through the JAMF parent app.
