Important notice - Overseas student access to Kilvington digital resources

Kunal Sharma, Head of IT

As we approach the term break, please be aware that, for cybersecurity reasons, access to school resources from overseas locations is restricted by default. 

If your child will be travelling internationally during the holidays or at any time throughout the year and requires access to school platforms (such as KCEE, emails, or other digital resources), they must request access from the School ICT team.

All students have been sent an email with a link to a form which must be completed prior to travel. This process ensures that legitimate overseas access is enabled while protecting our systems from potential threats.

We kindly request that you encourage your child to check their school email and complete the form if applicable.

SchoolTV: A Guide To Safe Partying

For teenagers, celebrations, partying and socialising are a fundamental rite of passage and one of the most important aspects of a young person’s life. However, it is possible for the best young person to get carried away by their peers and the euphoria of the moment.

Communication and regular discussions with parents and children are vital, particularly because young people are often faced with peer pressure to do things they prefer not to engage in. If hosting an event, you owe your guests a ‘duty-of-care’ and should ensure all reasonable steps are taken to keep partygoers safe. 

This SchoolTV edition provides caregivers with list of things to consider when planning a celebration. He is the link to your Special Report. 

SchoolTV: Cybersafety

Young people today are growing up in an increasingly connected world where technology is part of their everyday lives –– for learning, socialising, and entertainment. While the digital world offers enormous benefits, it also comes with serious risks. 

Cybersafety is not just about blocking access – it's about empowering young people with the knowledge and skills they need to use technology responsibly and safely. This includes understanding privacy settings, recognising scams and developing healthy digital habits.
