Passwords are private

Just say no
Don’t get personal
4
Don’t share your personal details. This includes your phone
number, address, date of birth and even your family name. If
you already know someone well and trust them, it is probably OK to
share some information but check first with your parent.
Don’t share your password, not even with
your best friend. And remember to change
your password at least once a month so no one
can guess it.
6 Do it online
Don’t arrange to meet someone you ONLY know
online unless you first check with your parent. Ask
your parent to go with you the first time you meet anyone
new. Always meet in a public place and during the day.
You should never bully or be mean to anyone on
Skooville. This includes excluding someone. If
someone is being mean to you, don't reply to them. Instead,
tell someone you trust, like a teacher or parent and report
the person who is bullying you on Skooville. If you see
someone being bullied, stand up and say something. Tell
the person being bullied that you support them and report
the incident to an adult.

Follow the rules, have
fun and be safe!
As a member of
Skooville you must
follow these simple
CyberSafety rules:
2 Words can hurt
Spam is ugly
Unwanted and silly messages are
spam. Spam is really, really annoying. If
you don't want to get blocked by your friends,
don't send spam. Ever.

Mates not dates
Skooville is a great place to make friends but
it's not the right place for 'chatting up'. They
might get upset, embarrassed or even frightened. If
anyone starts chatting you up or says something to
make you feel uncomfortable, ask them to stop and
report the incident on Skooville.
10 Don't go there
Not all websites are suitable or safe. Take care
when visiting or recommending websites to others. If you
are unsure about a website, check first with a teacher or
parent before using it.
