As students we tend to dwell on the negatives due to stress, however there are a lot of positive things that happen in our lives that tend to get overshadowed.

Speaking about positivity can help bring a change to our perspectives and how we view different elements of our day-to-day life. 

“Got to see family for the first time in a whole year because of Covid-19.”

Anna Svensson-Stoltz – professional and creative writing 

“My son’s teacher got married and she had had her wedding postponed numerous times because of Covid-19, so it was nice to see all of the pictures come through on WhatsApp and it looked really lovely.”

Amy Sterling – masters psychology 

“The best news that I can think of this week was that my daughter came home with a headmistress award. She had been doing well in times tables practice and was really happy and chuffed with herself.”
