This Tradies National Health Month, we are committed to supporting the mental health of Australian tradies.
Tradies are navigating significant pressures, but more people are also speaking up and seeking support.
Let's keep that momentum going by checking in, listening and making mental health part of everyday conversations.
If you need extra support, Beyond Blue is available 24/7.

We love good news!

New eSafety research shows parents and carers of 10–17-year-olds are doing an incredible job supporting their children online, with over 90% already talking about online safety 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦👏

Parents are doing alot to keep their children and teens safer online. Keep up the great work parents, carers and families!

As children across Australia settle into school for Term 3, it’s the perfect time to check in about their online experiences and habits.

New eSafety research shows parents and carers of 10–17-year-olds are doing an incredible job supporting their children online, with over 90% already talking about online safety 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦👏

But the online world is changing so quickly and some of the biggest emerging risks aren’t being discussed as often. Our research found:
📲 1 in 4 parents talk about how algorithms influence what children see online
🤖 1 in 10 discuss how generative AI can be used and misused
💰 Fewer than 1 in 10 have talked about sextortion.

There isn’t one conversation that prepares children for every online experience. What matters most is creating an environment where they know they can come to a trusted adult if something doesn’t feel right and keeping those check-ins going as they grow.

Whether it’s talking about social media, AI or how and why online content ends up in their feeds, even small, regular chats can make a real difference.

If you’re not sure where to start, eSafety is here to help. Explore our free resources, including webinars, guides, conversation starters and a newsletter to help you navigate today’s online challenges with confidence: eSafety.gov.au/parents

This one is one of our favourites...."The Inclusion Backpack".

Tools that take big concepts such as inclusion and explain it with visuals & language that children can understand. A fantastic companion when discussing diversity, belonging, disability inclusion, culture, fairness & respect with children.
