Calling all teachers! Did you know that you can us

Calling all teachers! Did you know that you can use the Shine Festival website as a well-being support or class resource?⁠
⁠
We thought of everything! We want to reach as many girls as possible with our virtual SHINE Festival and this is why you can join us from your own school completely FREE!⁠
⁠
Yep, you heard us right.⁠
⁠
On Wednesday the 11th of October, to celebrate International Day of the Girl, why not turn your school gym, sports hall or classrooms into a mini festival site and watch some of the 150 videos available on the site?!⁠
⁠
P.S. All you'll have to do is head over to www.shinefestival.ie #shinefestival

"As if surviving getting bullied in your everyday

"As if surviving getting bullied in your everyday life isn't enough, now you get to deal with it 24/7 because of social media. It's shit. It shouldn't be a thing in this day and age, and yet here we are. ⁠
⁠
We know getting cyber bullied is traumatising, but sometimes it's better in these situations to act so nonchalant that the bully sees how little effect they have on the people around them. Maybe this could get them to focus on themselves for once?"⁠

"It seems like a new trend starts every other day the best new diet, the new fitness trend to get rid of some aspect of your body, the newest plastic surgery trend, or even the newest skincare trends. It feels like no matter what we do, we will never get it right. "⁠

Ah love, what a dose. When its good its good, and when its bad it sucks.⁠

Bess Myerson said that “to fall in love is awfully simple, but to fall out of love is simply awful.” We’ve all been there Bess, keep the faith.⁠
⁠
If you’re currently nursing a broken heart, we know how much you want the pain to stop, and we also know that you can’t just turn off your feelings. Love doesn’t go away because you want it to, these things take time.⁠

"The chasm between being a teenage girl and an adult in your twenties is vast, lonely, and exciting. One second, you’re lying on the couch in your family home, and your mother is making the dinner in the kitchen, the immersion is on for your shower later and the rain outside does not worry you."⁠
