Different interactive group activities related to the topic had been organised and the students actively shared their views and gave their opinions.<\/p>\n<p>Alirah Adrienne, an S2 student from Belonie, said the session was really informative and will prompt them as young people to really think carefully and wisely about many things related to their education, career and future.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have been really impressed by the discussions and ideas that came out and it was an opportunity for me to learn many more things and how to seriously think and to be firm when making choices and decisions in life because they could have a great impact on your life,\u201d Alirah said .<\/p>\n<p>For Rishon Bastienne, an S4 student from Beau Vallon school, he said the session came at an opportune time when he is in the process of making decisions and choices for his future studies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am really grateful for the opportunity and it allowed me to properly reflect on many things related to making choices. It is not easy sometimes but the session would make me think more before I decide. It was really interesting,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking to Mrs Pool after the session, she said that through an evaluation form the students all stated that they have learnt many new things that would from now on help them to reflect more on different aspects before they make choices and decisions in their lives and their studies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are really happy with the students\u2019 engagement and participation and we are also very happy that some career teachers also attended the session. At a time when teenagers are faced with a lot of social challenges and temptations, it is always good to boost their understanding of different aspects of life so they are resilient and can resist bad influences and temptations and can choose what is good for them and their future,\u201d Mrs Pool said.<\/p>\n<p>She added that there is a great need to increase such life skills sessions to better prepare our students and armed them with all they need to face life with all its challenges.<\/p>\n<p>The sessions were sponsored and supported by the Women\u2019s Trust Fund.<\/p>\n<p>The APSHF expresses its heartfelt gratitude to the different schools for their cooperation by allowing their students to take part in the half-day sessions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/seychelles\">Seychelles<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Seychelles.
