Everyone deserves equal opportunities to succeed in life

Oriveden Sanomat published a new Hello Teenager! column this week. 

The aim of our Erasmus+ KA2 project "Hello Teenager!" is to focus on the challenging life of today's teenagers. With the help of this project our six European schools aim to improve the well-being of teenagers, to increase the participation of teenagers, to increase the awareness of environmental issues and sustainability and to develop the school culture of the participating schools into more international and sustainable. The participating school also aim to increase international competence and skills of the pupils and school staff.

Many pupils suffer from stress and anxiety and they feel overwhelmed with all the demands and expectations at school and in their freetime. During the project period we want to promote the messages "You're enough" and "When you're doing your best, that's enough". 

We want to teach our pupils how to deal with stress and other mental issues by teaching them how to look after own mental health. We also want to teach school staff how to face the wellbeing issues and how to give every pupil the feeling of importance and respect. It's about paying more attention to the pupils and to support all of them, to notice everybody and to encounter teenagers.
