Keeping our Children Safe Online

Jun 19, 2026 12:00 AM

As parents, we all know that raising children in today's digital world can feel both exciting and challenging. Technology provides incredible opportunities for learning, creativity and connection, but it also presents risks that can sometimes be difficult to navigate.

 

One of the most trusted resources available to Australian families is the eSafety Commissioner. The eSafety team provides practical, evidence-based advice on topics such as social media, gaming, cyberbullying, online relationships, screen time, privacy and emerging technologies. Their resources are designed to help parents and carers have informed conversations with their children and confidently support them in developing safe and responsible online habits.

I encourage all parents and carers to subscribe to eSafety's free Parent Newsletter. Delivered directly to your inbox, it provides timely advice, practical tips, updates on emerging online trends and access to a wealth of resources to help keep your family safe online. As a College, we value the partnership between school and home in supporting the wellbeing of our young people. Staying informed is one of the most effective ways we can work together to help students navigate the online world safely and confidently.

I commend this excellent resource to all families.
