eSafety

Quarry Hill Primary School’s aim is to educate students on their role and responsibilities as a digital citizen, including awareness of dangers and managing their online identities (digital footprint). We are an eSmart School. An eSmart school is a school where the smart, safe and responsible use of information and communications technology is a cultural norm. Students, teachers and the wider school community are equipped to embrace the best these technologies can offer, while being savvy about the pitfalls. For more information, please visit www.esmart.org.au.

At Quarry Hill Primary School, we have a clear scope and sequence for teaching age related skills and concepts.

We recommend the following ‘cybersafe’ websites/apps to students and families:
