Program Overview
A structured program that goes beyond the classroom
The Student Digital Safety Ambassador Program is a structured school-based initiative that encourages students to understand the impact of their online behaviour and use their knowledge to support others — including parents and grandparents.
The program is delivered within the school environment and designed to be engaging, accessible and easy for schools to integrate. Students are supported to apply what they learn both within the school and at home.
The program focuses on:
Digital safety awareness
Responsible online behaviour
Understanding online risks
Encouraging positive digital habits
Supporting Seniors Through Students
Students as a bridge between generations
A key part of this program is encouraging students to engage with older family members. This creates a practical connection between generations and reinforces learning beyond the classroom.
Students are guided to bring their knowledge home — sharing what they have learned with parents and grandparents in a natural, supportive way.
This intergenerational element is what makes the program unique — students become a resource for the whole family, not just for the school.
Share their knowledge with parents and grandparents
Help identify potential online risks at home
Support safe use of devices and online tools
Encourage conversations about digital safety
