Ruby's Web education webinar

Ruby's Web education webinar
Thursday, March 05 – Thursday, March 05, 2026
6:00pm-7:00pm

Join Dr Lilly Brown, educator and CEO of Magabala Books, in conversation with award-winning author Ellen van Neerven for an engaging online webinar exploring their powerful new upper middle grade book Ruby’s Web.

Ruby’s Web is a timely and deeply relevant story about online bullying, social media, and the emotional realities young people navigate in digital spaces. As classrooms increasingly grapple with conversations around online behaviour, empathy, and safety, this session offers educators practical tools to support students in meaningful ways.

 

In this webinar, Ellen and Lilly will discuss:

  • The themes and ideas behind Ruby’s Web

  • How the book can be used in classroom settings across year levels

  • Supporting students to think critically about social media, online relationships, and bullying

  • Creating space for respectful, age-appropriate conversations about digital citizenship

  • Building confidence when teaching First Nations texts in the classroom

  • There will also be Q&A portion where you can ask your own questions!

     

Whether you’re looking for practical teaching strategies, want to deepen your understanding of how literature can support wellbeing and online safety, or just want to hear all about Ellen's incredible new book, this session is designed to equip and inspire educators.
