Our school has developed a comprehensive online safety curriculum tailored to the needs of our students. This curriculum covers essential topics such as cyberbullying, privacy, digital footprints, and safe online communication. You can download the full curriculum here.

We actively participate in Internet Safety Week, a national initiative aimed at promoting safe and responsible internet use. During this week, we organize various activities and events, including interactive sessions to engage students and parents alike.

We believe that parents play a crucial role in ensuring their children's online safety. To support this, we send home informative leaflets that cover a range of online safety topics. These leaflets provide practical tips and advice for parents to help their children stay safe online. You can access these leaflets here:

Our monthly online safety newsletter keeps parents and students informed about the latest online safety trends, tips, and news. Each newsletter is packed with valuable information to help families stay updated on online safety practices. You can view and download past newsletters here.
