Yubo- social media app

It has been brought to our attention that some students in the school are using the app Yubo that allows them to talk and share pics/info with potentially any person who uses the app. 

The app is set up similar to Tinder where students 13+ can swipe left or right on peoples profile and then initiate a chat with them. 

Without anyway of confirming the identity of the individuals they are talking to, we are asking parents and guardians to be vigilant and hold conversations regarding the use of this app with their children

Girl Guides 

For over 100 years Girl Guides Victoria have been providing fantastic opportunities for girls and women to meet personal challenges.

Guides develop confidence, self-reliance, learn team building and leadership skills – all while making new friends and having fun.The activities could be outdoor adventures such as canoeing, archery, abseiling, camping, skiing, hiking overnight, cooking damper over a fire or just sitting around a campfire singing, chatting and sharing a joke. There are other times, though, when the girls prefer indoor activities such as trying a special recipe, having a go at making something, being creative in the visual or dramatic arts, working as a team to plan your next adventure, finding out about other cultures and religions or learning skills through games. No two meetings are ever the same.
