E-Safety and Digital Health

Katie McClue - Assistant Principal

Digital Safety and Wellbeing: Term 4 

This Term our students will be engaging in the following subjects, through our partnership with Inform and Empower: 

  • Person information sharing
  • Online scams
  • Critical thinking and questioning online content

 

The E-Safety Commission is a good place to start when seeking information about how to support your child in relation to online safety and critical thinking: https://www.esafety.gov.au/parents/issues-and-advice/privacy-child. They provide resources according to age, or whether you are a parent, or child, seeking information. 

Previous Topics

As we are heading into the school holidays, we will not commence a new topic. If you haven't yet engaged with the E-Safety information and resources shared already, we encourage you to take a look at the topics covered in previous newsletters. Additionally, there are some respected sources of information listed below, should you have an enquiry that we haven't already covered.
