First Webinar: Online Safety Essentials

We are kicking off the Tech Safe Parents Webinar Series with an essential session on digital safety.

What It’s About:
Our children are growing up in a hyper-connected world, but how safe are they online? Research shows that 59% of students have no overnight restrictions on their devices—meaning they have unfiltered access to the digital world while unsupervised.*

This session will provide practical, easy-to-implement strategies for parents, including:

✅ Managing parental controls to secure devices and apps.
✅ Establishing safe browsing habits and reducing exposure to online risks.
✅ Implementing essential safeguards against cyber threats.
✅ Step-by-step guidance to help you feel more confident about your child’s online safety.

This is a must-attend session for all families looking to protect their children online while fostering healthy, balanced technology use.

Date: Tuesday 18 March 2025
Time: 7.30pm AEDT
Location: Online (live & recorded for later viewing)
