Grade VIII students of Hari Shree participated in the inter school event on ‘ Leader in Me’ where delegates and viewers from schools across South India were present. In their presentation, our participants connected the 7 habits of LiM with mental health, emphasising how daily incidents in an adolescent’s life, school or personal, affects their mental health and how one can use the 7 habits to overcome them. The Hari Shree stall at the event provided takeaways like affirmation cards, affirmation painted popsicle sticks, a self-reflection survey and self-care checklists connecting to the habit, ‘Sharpen the Saw’. Student participants got the opportunity to meet Mr. Sean Covey, who found their presentation creative, outstanding and loved the handouts.
