           The Social & Emotional Learning (SEL)
           Team  at DPSI took this opportunity
           to celebrate this day with full ardor.
           Students from MYP 1-4 and DP 1 were
           asked to share their ‘Happiness Mantras’
           that showcased their understanding of
           happiness. The day prompted many to
           reflect on their well-being and identify
           areas  where  they  can  make  positive
           changes to improve the quality of their
           life. It was beautiful to see the different
           activities that brought our students
           happiness.
