We live in an increasingly connected world — and raising children to be safe, respectful, and resilient online has never been more important.

Join us for a powerful and practical parent education evening with Kirra Pendergast, founder of Ctrl+Shft and one of Australia’s leading voices in digital safety. Kirra’s engaging approach cuts through overwhelm and empowers families with tools that work.

During this special evening for All Saints parents and caregivers, Kirra will unpack:

The fine print of app sign-ups and privacy terms
Risks around online gaming, group chats, and synthetic friendships
Sextortion, image-based abuse, and respectful digital relationships
Screen time, scams, misinformation and how to build online resilience
Photo sharing and positive digital footprints

This session is part of All Saints’ new partnership with Ctrl+Shft, a multidisciplinary coalition founded by Kirra Pendergast, Maggie Dent, Dr Brad Marshall, and Madeleine West. Ctrl+Shft brings together trusted expertise in parenting, psychology, education, and online safety to support families and schools through the complex digital challenges facing young people today.

Please note: This presentation is for adults only (18+).

Founder of Safe on Social and Ctrl+Shft, Kirra Pendergast maps the cultural, emotional, and legal fallout of emerging technologies—and builds proactive frameworks to prevent it. Where traditional technologists forecast features, she forecasts impact. Where compliance asks, “Is this legal?”, she also asks, “Is this ethical, survivable, and just?”

With over 30 years of experience, Kirra is a global authority on human-centred digital risk, psychosocial safety, and online governance. She has led whole-of-government cybersecurity and identity programs, and her lived experience as a survivor of cyber abuse in 2013 catalysed the founding of Safe on Social—now Ctrl+Shft, the largest independent digital safety education agency in the world.

Kirra’s work spans more than 1,200 organisations across five continents. She has advised governments, contributed to legislative reform, and designed industry-first frameworks to protect people—not platforms. Her style blends technical fluency with trauma-informed system design, regulatory insight, and culture-shifting education.
