This may lead to young children or teenagers to chat with strangers online, be it msn or through other chatrooms. Here are some steps to have safe chatting with strangers:
1)Never reveal personal details to people you only know online.
2)Never go alone to meet someone you met on the internet. Children should always be accompanied by a trusted adult. Choose busy, public locations.
3)Take control: follow the advice offered by social networking sites to keep you safe.
4)Don’t open emails or files or accept downloads from people or sites you don’t know.

Godliness: I feel that this value tells me to respect God and love him with all my heart. I can show God that I love him by being positive and encouraging towards my friends and family. I can be encouraging towards my friends by helping them in their school work and lend them a listening ear when they need one. I could tell them more about God and tell them how great he is and encourage them to be positive towards themselves. E.g, when they fail their exams or test, I can encourage to do well and work harder the next time. I could use by free time to help in CIP work like helping the old folks and the children who are in need.
Respect: This value tells me to respect others and myself. I can respect others by not laughing at them when they fail their exams or when they do something wrong. Instead, I can help them in their work or give my advice to them on what to do. I could respect myself by being proud of the school I am in and respecting my own health and appearence. I can do this by not harming myself when I am stress or when I am sad. I can be neat and not dress shaggly in my school uniform and respect the school rules.
All-Round Excellence: I could show this value by working hard to acheive my goals and perservere towards achieving them. To be enthusiathic in everything that I participate in, e.g, camps, workshops and class discussions. I must be positive towards myself in order to show this GRACE value.
Commitment: I must be commited in doing my schoolwork and handing it up on time. As a class com member, I must be commited to help my teachers when they need help in carrying books and taking care of the class when the teacher is not around. I must be strong in facing challenges like in my schoolwork or friendship problems.
Enthusiam: I must contribute actively in all roles in order to be enthusiatic. I must show others that I am enthustic so that others would follow. I must take initiative in being responsible so that less mistakes would be made.
Lastly, by showing the grace values, I could be proud of my school and tells others how great PLMGSS is!
