Description: On the 21st November, there was a little trip to Tarragona in order to attend the Parlem d'autoestima journey. It consisted of three different talks realised by three different psychologists, focusing on different aspects where teens are lacking on. Everything, because of the title, was related to self-esteem.
Planning/previous thoughts: When the teacher explained to us the type of trip we were offered to attend, I was highly interested because I considered that it was important to raise awareness of these mental issues because I think that mental and physical health are both important to have a healthy lifestyle.
They gave us the option to go directly there and use our car. However, I decided to pick the school bus to reduce my carbon emission.Â
Activity's valoration: From my perspective, this conference is vital, attending to the current needs of the students and I have boosted my creative perspective with the reconnaissance of different strategies to go through my personal difficulties and by knowing my strengths and weaknesses.
Final reflection: Looking it from a broader perspective, I have learned to self-manage when going through stressful situations, such as an exam week or a period of internal assessment deliveries. In the future, it would be interesting to share this knowledge with the rest of the school or with my friends.
