Cyber Wellness

What is Cyber Wellness

Cyber Wellness (CW) refers to the positive well-being of Internet users. CW education aims to equip students with an understanding of online behaviour and enable them to be responsible for their own well-being in cyberspace.

Cyber Wellness Resources and Parental Tips

To complement the Cyber Wellness curriculum in HPPS, we encourage parents to:

1. Establish ground rules for the use of digital devices and the Internet.

2. Talk to your child about his/her online experiences and discuss about the benefits and risks of the Internet.

3. Get your child to share with you his/her favourite online websites and spend time online together doing family activities.

4. Reassure your child that he/she can ask you questions or talk to you if he/she runs into problems online.
