Topic 2: Personal Strengths

 

Over the past two weeks, we have started learning about Personal Strengths within our 4R’s program. Students are beginning to develop a vocabulary to help them recognise and understand strengths and positive qualities in themselves and others.

 

Why focus on personal strengths?

 

Research tells us that individuals who use their character strengths lead happier, more satisfying lives.

When students engage their strengths, they tend to learn more readily, perform at a higher level, are more motivated and confident, and have a stronger sense of confidence and satisfaction.

 

Below is a couple of activities the family can do together over the holidays to focus in on Personal Strengths.
