Digital Technology News

Over the start of this term the students once again have been participating in the Inform and Empower digital technology webinars.

The webinars this term focused on helping students to identify 'comfortable' and 'uncomfortable' feelings. These feelings were then related to the online world and students learnt what they should do if they expereince uncomfortable feelings while engaged in online activities.

The webinars also emphasised the need for a balance between screen time and green time (time away from technology).

Below you will find attachments with more specific details of the contents of the webinars for each of the year levels and tips on how to reinforce these vital messages with your children at home.

Last week Inform and Empower ran a parent webinar about Raising Kids in a Digital World. The messages in this webinar were incredibly relevant to all of us with children and provided up to date information on what faces our children in an ever changing online world. If you were unable to attend and would be interested in watching the webinar, you can click on the link below to access it.

We are very grateful for our partnership with Marty McGauran and his team at Inform and Empower. Understanding and educating our students about the world online will continue to be of the utmost importance as technology continues to develop and become ever more entwined in our daily lives.
