It’s important not only to keep our kids safe from physical dangers but in our ever-growing technical online world, cyber safety is vital for all children. It can be difficult to know where to begin and how to protect our children online. It's never too young to start a conversation about cyber safety.
If you are a parent who is looking to find out more and make some changes in the home, the government eSafety commission shares advice and tips on the big issues of cyber safety. Some families have even found it beneficial to create a family online safety contract. If you’re worried that your child is being cyber-bullied or you want to report cyber bullying, there are options available.
Schools and teachers may want to learn how they can protect Camden Kids or how they can teach students to be safe online.
If you’re a Camden Kid and are worried that you may have shared something you didn’t mean to, don’t panic, there is always someone to talk to, your teacher, your mum and dad or maybe a counsellor. If you are being cyberbullied, it is important to let someone know; there is always someone there to help. The Kids Helpline is available 24/7 to chat to and you can talk to them about anything.
