Cyber Wellness

The Cyber Wellness (CW) education in GSS is customised to develop Greenridgeans into responsible ICT users who

are able to protect themselves
be responsible for their well-being in cyberspace
have good netiquette

Guided by MOE’s refreshed Character and Citizenship Education (CCE) curriculum, through the GSS CW programme, students will:

Embrace the affordances of technology while maintaining a balanced lifestyle between offline and online activities
Be a safe and responsible user of technology and maintain a positive online presence
Be responsible for personal well-being in the cyberspace

Integration of Cyber Wellness within the Total Curriculum

In GSS, we believe values are better caught than taught. Hence the CW experience goes beyond the explicit teaching of desired values and attitudes in CCE lessons. The CW programme is integrated within different curricular and co-curricular programmes to keep learning authentic.

Media Literacy Ambassador Training

Our Media Literacy Ambassadors (MLAs) heighten the awareness of others to be responsible digital learners when they serve as peer support leaders in the online space. In this role, they support their schoolmates, advocate for positive cyber etiquette by role-modelling the proper dispositions and inspire their peers through different programmes and student-led initiatives such as:

Class-based sharing to facilitate discussion on CW issues with their classmates
School-wide sharing during Cyber Wellness Fortnight where MLAs set up CW exhibitions as well as conduct sharing during assembly
