What is Cyberbullying? Cyberbullying refers to bullying carried out using the internet, mobile phones or other technological devices. This form of bullying takes a psychological rather than physical form. It can be sending nasty, mean or threatening messages, emails, photos, videos or putting such materials up on social media web pages, as well as impersonating another in chat rooms or on social media sites.

REMEMBER The granny rule! If you wouldn’t show a picture to your granny then it probably shouldn’t be online!”
