Attitude Talk!

On the 17th of October Tony from the company, Attitude helped the year 7&8's from Pt England School to be more aware of puberty both physically and emotionally. Although it was awkward us as young adults had to be mature and focus on why Tony was here. In this piece of writing I will be telling you my favourite part from his presentation and what I have learnt from his awesome talk.

One of his first points was about how our bodies change. He told us not to worry about these changes because of how common these changes are. I really liked this part of the talk because of how he presented his points and how he told us that he can relate to what is happening to our bodies at this age. Part of the boy change part he reminded us that we can talk to older people just like our mum and dad's. He said not to be scared of opening up because they will most likely have more information or tips on how to feel more comfortable about these changes.

I have learnt to be more comfortable talking to adults about these changes. Another thing that I have learnt is the actual changes of the body and to remain calm when these things happen. I would like to say thank you to the Attitude company for this amazing talk, I have learnt loads and am looking forward to the next talk on Friday.
