Conversations
Many high school students go through difficult times and choose not to talk about them and deal with it alone. This highly affects their academics. This session is a conversation between our educators and a counselor who would help them identify behavioral changes and academic differences in students and learn how to approach them in a sensitive manner that won’t alarm them. The pandemic and the lockdown has not been easy for anyone and we would like a part of this session to also be focused on how the educators can maintain their well-being.
Talk It Out
Talk it out is a non-profit community service initiative. Its aim is to create a safe space for adolescents to pose queries or questions related to mental, emotional, behavioral, and social issues. These questions can be asked on the website and the three professionals working with the team try to answer them. The professionals also have helped raise awareness about mental health issues with the team of talking it out through webinars in nonprofit schools. This event is in collaboration with the Talk It Out team, where we’ll take questions from our peers, and in a webinar/panel discussion setting the professionals will answer them and talk about mental health and the stigma around it.
Treasure Hunt
Weave the story
Subject Anxiety workshop
We wanted an event where the participants feel happy and content and their moods are uplifted and thus we have planned a treasure hunt. This is also an opportunity for individuals to reflect and learn things about mental health while playing treasure hunt. This event helps in approaching a sensitive yet important topic i.e mental health in a more fun manner.
Weave the story is an event that helps in making individuals aware and teaches them skills to handle situations like panic attacks and anxiety attacks. The aim of the event is to help our peers know the basic skills of peer support and acclimatize them to situations where they/their friends may require support.
​
Despite learning subjects of their choice, high school students suffer from subject anxiety. A form of anxiety that hinders individuals from being able to approach and study their subjects. We feel this is an area of concern that many of our peers have faced, especially during the lockdown and we would like to help ourselves and our peers learn skills and coping mechanisms to deal with this. Therefore, we would like to do an interactive session and workshop for students where they learn how to counter their anxiety about studies.
