Greetings Karoo-ians,

What an incredible Term 2 it has been, and now we're eagerly looking ahead to Term 3, especially our upcoming Parents Education Partnership Series event. This session, focusing on digital safety, has consistently been both popular and informative over the years.

We are thrilled to welcome back Marty McGauran, primary school teacher, digital safety educator, and founder of Inform & Empower, along with Carley McGauran, psychologist and mother of three school-aged children. 

Together, they bring a powerful combination of professional expertise and real-world parenting experience to our Term 3 Parents Education Partnership series event on "Raising Kids in a Digital World."

This promises to be one of the most valuable events of the year, offering insights to help parents and carers navigate the challenges and opportunities of raising children in today's fast-paced digital environment.

Topics will include:

• Social media
• Online gaming
• Strengthening family communication
• Impacts of screen time
• Cyberbullying
• Managing devices at home
• Explicit/adult content
• Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Please note: This event is exclusively for parents and carers. Content is not suitable for students.
