08.01.2022 Catastrophic fire danger days Our school has detailed plans in place to keep your child safe in the event of a bushfire. On catastrophic fire danger days in the Mid North fire ban district GLADSTONE HIGH SCHOOL will be closed and no one is permitted on site. After school sports or activities will also be cancelled. Whilst our school’s bushfire risk rating is R3 (medium to low risk), we are in close proximity to a nearby R1 or R2 (extreme to very high risk) school/preschool.... This change allows for a consistent approach to the management of school and preschool closures in our immediate area. If a catastrophic fire danger day is forecast, we will inform you of a closure after 4pm the day before. If the CFS upgrade the fire danger rating to catastrophic on the day, our school will remain open. This is in line with the department’s processes and allows us to more easily manage communication with parents and caregivers in the event that a closure of the school is recommended by the department. We encourage you to read the Bushfire and your child’s school or preschool brochure for more information on school closures and how we will act if threatened by a bushfire. https://www.education.sa.gov.au//bushfire-and-your-childs- See more

05.01.2022 . A lot of warnings have been issued for children to stay off social media, specifically Tik Tok, d...ue to a graphic self harm video that’s circulating. While we do recommend that parents monitor their children or keep them off the platform, it's a band-aid solution for a long-term issue due to the fact that distressing videos constantly circulate online. Instead we would like to encourage all parents and guardians to -: 1 . Understand that they will most likely use it, whether you understand the appeal or not. Ask them what apps they use, find out why they like those apps. Start a dialogue so you can start understanding why it’s important to them. The more you understand about it, the more you can stay across it. 2 . If you know what apps they’re using, help them make their profile as secure as possible, whether it’s TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Twitch or Reddit (the list is endless). You can do this with the help of this eSafety Commissioner guide: www.esafety.gov.au/key-issues/esafety-guide 3 . Be open and willing to listen. Make them aware of Kids Helpline Official (1800 55 1800), Beyond Blue (1300 22 4636), headspace (headspace.org.au) and Lifeline (13 11 14) so they know they have a place to contact if they don’t feel comfortable approaching you. 4 . Kids often create a social media profile that they make visible to you, but keep their actual profile under a fake name hidden from you. Again, this is why we encourage you to talk to your child openly and honestly. 5 . If your child watches YouTube videos, please be aware there's no guarantee that this content will be safe for kids. People can easily edit distressing videos for kids that slip through the filters. If you can't monitor your child on YouTube then let them watch Netflix kids instead as it has stronger filters. SBS and ABC iview are both free alternatives for children’s online content. The Office of the eSafety Commissioner is a great resource for parents, guardians and kids: www.esafety.gov.au
