Stay safe online

It is really important to protect our identities when using online tools. These videos from the e-safety commissioner help students work through what is safe to share and what isn't.

    Students working through this resource will be able to:

    • identify personal information
    • demonstrate an awareness of why it might be unwise to share their personal information online 
    • learn how to protect their personal information online
    • understand the importance of seeking advice from a trusted adult before participating online or if they feel unsafe online
    • feel encouraged to be open about their online experiences with a trusted adult.
