E-Learning

Technology today enables us to complete many tasks from day to day. From allowing us to connect with others more than ever before, to find the answers to our questions with a click of a button or a tap of a screen. The advantages of devices are vast.

However, sometimes, we can have too much of a good thing.

Screen time is a common issue emerging among families, not just at Miners Rest but in the world today. The right amount depends on a range of factors, such as your child's age and maturity, what content they are accessing and your family routine.

Ask yourself:

Do I really know what my child is accessing online?

Do I know exactly how much screen time my child is having?

Do we have clear boundaries when it comes to using technology?

Do we have set device-free zones and times at home?

If no, clink on the following links from the eSafety Commissioner to find a number of simple yet effect tips and strategies to positively impact not only your child's, but your whole family's health and wellbeing!
