POLAND
This year, to celebrate World Mental Health Day, we organised a series of workshops for students and teachers
- first year students met specialists who talked about manipulation created by the media and the Internet and games as a trap
- senior classes had a workshop referring to the problem of depression - second year pupils talked about personality disorders caused by pseudo role models created by the media
- teachers participated in a meeting dealing with job burnout
There were also some less serious events. The school game, as last year, and relaxation workshops. These workshops were rather unusual. The students didn't try out any new relaxation techniques. They created lap books presenting their favorite, tried out ways of fighting stress and relaxing. These workshops resulted in a nice collection of colorful and, most importantly, meaningful lap books. Have a look!
