Child Safety Handbook

Following on from last week's article in our newsletter about 'bullying' and this week's article about 'cybersafety', Catholic Schools NSW included an article about the Child Safety Handbook in their newsletter. The Child Safety Handbook is a resource for parents, carers and teachers, produced by NSW Police Legacy and includes everything we need as a community to protect our most valuable and vulnerable resource – our children.  From preventative measures at home to safety outdoors, from cybersafety to dealing with peer pressures, this handbook is a resource for every family and school community. The handbook is also available as an app and can be downloaded via the Apple store, Google Play or Amazon Kindle. The handbook references the policies in government schools and it is important to note that our Catholic Schools have the same policies and procedures in place in our schools. I particularly liked the descriptions about intervention and the importance of those involved to be working together to resolve problems as they arise.
