Info from Last Night's Online Safety Session

Thanks so much to Bec from Evolve Education for conducting last night's  Digital Safety and Wellbeing Webinar. We had 28 people attend and it was an extremely insightful, informative and at times confronting, session. 

 

Bec referenced the beacon app throughout her session as a great resource for all things cyber safety. https://beacon.telethonkids.org.au/

 Beacon aims to improve the digital future for Australian children by building parents’ and carers’ digital skills so they can confidently navigate their children’s use of digital technology in a positive way and minimise potential harms associated with being online.

The Beacon app integrates seamlessly into parents’ daily lives, delivering the most trusted and up-to-date information backed by behavioural science research, as well as personalised support, ideas and strategies at their fingertips to navigate the ever-changing online world.
