Cyberwellness refers to the positive well-being of Internet users. It involves an understanding of the risks of harmful online behaviour, an awareness of how to protect oneself and other Internet users from such behaviour.

Through various school initiatives/programmes, Tampines Primary School aims to develop a sense of cyberwellness. This will ensure that our pupils benefit and enjoy ICT responsibly and safely.
