Internet Health, Safety & Wellbeing

Below are some key pieces of advice (John will also be sharing a lot more information, and we will share these in future newsletters):

• Do not let your child take their technology into their bedroom (ages 5-13)
• Photos showing their bedroom, bathroom, or pyjamas should not be online
• Teach your child that their body is unique and belongs to them
• Be your child's guardian, not necessarily their friend
• The absolute critical importance of sleep, for learning and health reasons
• Is your child sleeping enough for their age? Are they moving enough? Are they socialising with others?
• John spoke very positively about what he had seen at our school, and advocates for the importance of play, and play based learning
• Own your right to parent your child particularly between the ages of 8-14, when "power struggles" may start to occur.
