Cyber Safety Tips
By Ms. Reanna and the 5/6 Students
The internet is a fun and exciting place where we can play games, watch videos, and talk to friends—but just like in the real world, it’s important to stay safe.
When we know how to protect our personal information, be kind to others, and speak up if something feels wrong, we can enjoy the internet without worry. Always remember:
- Don’t share your full name, address, or school online.
- Be kind in your messages—words matter!
- If something makes you upset or uncomfortable, tell a trusted adult right away.
Let’s all be smart, safe, and respectful when we're online!
