Internet Safety

Effectively keeping ourselves safe while using the internet depends on the development a number of supporting skills. Students are taught how to evaluate information they encounter, how to maintain their privacy and security, and how to have safe interactions online. Internet safety shifts as fast as the technology we use, so we are constantly staying informed and adjusting how we teach.

The school also has a monitored internet connection through Linewize that blocks inappropriate content and is constantly tracks students use. Concerning entries are identified and sent through to the school for follow up. We recognise the powerful learning that the internet can provide our tamariki while always keeping in mind the potential risks involved
