When Colours Don’t Fly

Dr Anasuya Jegathesan, Counsellor

When Colours Don’t Fly

In November, we saw many school children break down, devastated over their less-than perfect string of A’s for UPSR.

We speak to counsellor Dr Anasuya Jegathesan about helping children and youths to manage expectations and to deal with success and failure healthily.
