At Wellington East we are proud of our place in the education community. We are proud of the reputation we have for student centred learning based on valuing the unique diversity of each student.
It’s about behaviour and choices, not the technology itself. We had a great presentation from Netsafe on Thursday for our juniors. Click here to see some of the key points from it.
If you have any worries or concerns about cyberbullying then please talk to someone. In school, our Hauora centre will be happy to help, or there are a number of people and agencies outside of school that can help.
