Safer Internet Day 2023

This Tuesday 7th February it is Safer Internet Day, a great opportunity to check in with your student or child to discuss safety online.

While children are immersed in online environments, they may not have the skills to safely navigate them. Just like crossing the road with them or checking who your teenager is getting a lift home with, regularly having conversations about interacting with people online, sending and sharing information/images/passwords and keeping an eye on friends is vitally important.

Please head to eSafety for online resources to help parents and teachers to guide these conversations : https://www.esafety.gov.au/newsroom/whats-on/safer-internet-day-2023

Teacher librarians are information specialists and can be called on for questions about eSafety – when in doubt, pop into the library!

Janet's Writing Blog

I write southern historical fiction, local history, and I've written a devotional book. The two novels I'm writing are set in Virginia and the Carolinas in the 1760s. My weekly blog started out to follow my journey as a writer and a reader, but in 2025 it has been greatly expanded to include current events and politics in the United States as I see our democracy under attack from within. The political science major in me cannot sit idly by and remain silent.
