New respectful relationship resources for secondary school students
We have collaborated with SBS Learn to develop four new resources for teachers to share with their secondary school students:
- Being in respectful relationships
- Creating positive change
- Giving and seeking help in relationships
- Power and gender
The webpages for young people also link to an SBS Learn classroom resource. See all eSafety resources for young people at esafety.gov.au/young-people.
Attention all young filmmakers!
The U.K.'s Childnet Film Competition: International is calling on young people from around the world to create a short film centred on this year’s online safety theme - “Time to talk – How can people support each other online?”.
Primary and secondary school students in Australia are encouraged to create a two minute film on this year’s theme for a chance to win £500 (approx. AUD$900) to use towards film equipment for their school. Teachers have until Wednesday 21 June to submit their students’ entries.
eSafety is also proud to have two members of the eSafety Youth Council serve as judges in two categories of this year’s international competition.
