Our Lady Help of Christians School Epping - OLHC

Safer Internet Day is coming — Tuesday 10 February 2026!

We join schools around the world to celebrate Safer Internet Day — a reminder that together, we can help our students build safer, smarter and kinder online communities.

At our schools, we’re committed to helping young people develop positive digital habits so they can learn, play, socialise and explore online with confidence.

This year’s message is simple:
✨ Small actions make a big difference.
Whether it’s starting a conversation, setting a new family habit, or sharing a helpful tip, every step helps create a safer and more positive online space for our kids.

Australia’s eSafety Commissioner leads this global day of action, bringing together families, schools and communities from over 180 countries to raise awareness and build safer digital spaces for everyone.

Let’s empower young people to be confident and safe online.

✔️ Want to get involved?
Sign up for free resources and ideas to help your family build smarter, safer online habits — on the day and all year round.

👉 Let’s work together to support our children as they explore, learn and thrive online.
