Feb/Mar 10 - Singapore Swimming Club

I am sure most of you have access to the Internet
either at home or at school. Like any other tool,
you have to know its workings before you can get
the most out of it.
The Internet is a wonderful source of information
and entertainment! There are lots of stuff you can
do on the Internet. You can do research for your
school projects, communicate with your friends and
play interactive games.
However, you should be aware of the dangers that
lurk in the dark corners of the Internet. Here are
some things for you to note.
The chat-room is a place where you get to meet
many interesting people. The problem is that most
people do not use their real names on the Internet.
They use pseudonyms. So you cannot be certain if
the person you are chatting with is a boy or a girl –
or if that person is really twelve years old as he or
she claims!
Be careful what you post on the Internet. People
may use information like telephone numbers, addresses
and your movements and the movements of
your family members to plot against you.
If you are not sure if you should divulge certain
information over the Internet, it is best to err on the
side of caution. Make it a point to share any unusual
online incidents you encounter, with your parents.
Another thing to be aware of is the time you spend
on the computer. Many kids forget themselves once
they get on the Internet. There are other things you
can do besides surfing the Internet, so limit yourself.
Even if you have completed all your chores, don’t
spend all your free time on the Internet. To develop
yourself into a balanced person, you need to spend
some of your time on sports and physical activities to
build up your body, and also some time with family
and friends to develop your social skills.
We have a number of activities going on at the
Club during this period, including a Scrapbooking
Workshop, a Robotics Workshop and a Night Safari
Tour.
See you at the Club!
