Safer Internet

As part of their initial lesson in Digital Technologies, some of our Year 7 students identify how to be safer online during their time here at Lalor Secondary College.

It’s worth considering for ourselves as teachers also.

The themes of this year’s Safer Internet Day are: Connect, Reflect and Protect.

• Connect safely and with purpose – by keeping apps and devices secure and using social media in positive ways. 

• Reflect before we act – by taking a moment to consider how what we do and say online may affect others. 

• Protect ourselves and others by taking action – by telling family, friends or colleagues about eSafety and how we can help.  

By doing these simple things, we can work towards making every day a Safer Internet Day.

There are some great resources at this web address, particularly for Pastoral and Health teachers.
