April 2023 - Self-Awareness

Thank you to all the families, who continue to check out the monthly blogs.

Northern Lights Public School’s Division- Wide Theme for April is Self Awareness. Verywellmind.com defines Self Awareness as “your ability to perceive and understand the things that make you who you are as an individual, including your personality, actions, values, beliefs, emotions, and thoughts.” There are so many positive outcomes to being more self aware, including positive mindset, improved self confidence, enhanced optimism.

Self-reflection is defined by Kidskonnect.com as understanding who you are and what you feel. It means getting to know your values, your strengths, your weaknesses, and why you think and act in certain ways. Self- reflection is an important part of self-awareness, as the more time we can spend trying to understand our thoughts and feelings the better we will understand who we are.  

Here is some more information about the importance of self-awareness:
