e-Learning and Cyber Safety

e-Learning and Cyber Safety

As the school holidays begin today, our students may be spending more time on devices and online gaming. Children can connect with eachother using in-game chats while playing online together. Digital Wellbeing Content Creator Michael Guy has written a handy article on Risks and Safety tips in regards to in-game chats. This article was taken driectly from our St Pats Online Safety Hub.

This week is National eSmart Week. To support our community, the Alannah & Madeline Foundation has shared some fantastic resources specifically for parents. These guides offer practical advice on navigating tricky topics like delaying social media and managing technology and sleep. You can explore their expert tips through the link below.

There are still great resources also on our Online Safety Hub.
