ESafety

Dear Parents and members of the school community,

As technology continues to shape the way our students learn, connect and grow, it has become more important than ever that we approach its use with intention, balance, and care.

Digital tools offer extraordinary opportunities for creativity, collaboration, and access to information, however, issues such as reduced attention, concerns around screen time and wellbeing and online safety, are all part of the broader picture we must consider.

Across Australia, recent discussions around social media reform have brought renewed focus to the role of technology in young people’s lives. These national conversations are an important reminder that we, as teachers and parents, share the responsibility of helping children build healthy digital habits, both through education and role modelling.

The ESafety Commissioner has created a thorough website addressing the many issues being faced by parents and educators and there is a comprehensive parent and carers guide that you can now access on the school website.

The “ESafety” guide and further information are located in the “Child Safe Standards” link on the bottom of the home page of the school’s website.
