On Monday, Grade 6 students at St Mary of the Cross, Point Cook, stepped into the future of cyber education, presented by Deakin Cyber Research and Innovation Centre. Excited by the VR headsets and curious about the gaming experience, the students embarked on an immersive quest to protect their privacy and stay safe online. It was rewarding to see keen young minds engage so enthusiastically — asking great questions, collaborating, and reflecting on their online choices. A huge thank you to the staff and researchers at Deakin University for making this possible, and to the school for embracing new ways of building cyber resilience in young learners. If your school is looking to bring immersive cyber safety training to students, I’d be glad to connect and share more about this experience. #CyberSafety #VR #EdTech #DigitalCitizenship #Privacy #OnlineSafety #STEMEducation #ImmersiveLearning #StudentEngagement #DeakinCyber #BugBox #FutureReadyKids
