Online Safety – Monitoring tech use & online activity

We know helping kids stay safe while online is something many parents/guardians are concerned about. We encourage you to review the following resources for more information on the online interests of young people, the potential risks they face and proactive strategies to help keep them safe!

 

 

 

 

Raising Digitally Responsible Youth: A Parent’s Guide: https://www2.gov.bc.ca/assets/gov/erase/documents/raising-digitally-responsible-youth.pdf

Students are encouraged to always tell parents or other trusted adults if someone has made an inappropriate request or made them feel uncomfortable or unsafe.

NeedHelpNow.ca helps teens stop the spread of sexual pictures or videos and provides support along the way. If you or someone you know has been negatively impacted by a self/peer exploitation incident, we are here to help offer guidance on the steps you can take to get through it.

Pebble Hill Traditional’s 2022/2023 Grade 7 students are asking for your help. They’re raising funds toward their year-end celebration activities.

 

 

 

Two options to show your support:

  1. There will be occasional “pop-up” sales during lunch or after school that are organized/held by parents of grade 7 students and our Grade 7 Leadership Team. 
  2. Express drop off of recyclable containers at the Tsawwassen return it depot. Bag your cans and bottles in a clear plastic bag, take to the return it depot, enter Pebble Hill’s phone number 604-943-0228 at their printer kiosk, print out a label, tag your bag and drop in the express bin. It’s that simple. No sorting necessary. The funds can only be claimed by the school. If you need any assistance with bags or tags, or if you’d prefer to drop bagged items at the school, please email parent of a grade 7 student: Kelly at Kellya_76@hotmail.com to coordinate. Thanks!
