Online Safety

As young people become more independent online, they can connect and communicate with people they don’t know.


Often this is a positive experience, but sometimes your tamariki could be being groomed or talking to someone who isn’t who they say they are. Netsafe’s advice explains how unwanted contact works, including grooming and what whānau can do to educate kids.

Have a lovely weekend, Ngā mihi nui. Kia Kaha.
