INCREASING SELF ESTEEM - Senior students at Seaforth Public School participated in a True Colours
seminar fast Thursday to learn about different personality types and how they interact.
What colour are you?
Students learn their colour groups at school
BY GREGOR CAMPBELL
Expositor Staff
Senior students at Seaforth Public
School spent Thursday morning
trying to figure out if they were
more orange, blue, green or gold.
It was a True Colours basic skills
course co-ordinated by Huron
County Board of Education social
worker Val Millson who says the
interaction of these colours "makes
the world go round."
The four colours correspond to
four basic personality types, and
apparently all of us are unique
combinations of the four, with one
colour dominating our characters.
The aim of the seminar,
developed in California, was to
have fun while increasing student
self-esteem, and get them feeling
good about themselves and others.
By far the majority of youngsters
determined they were orange
personalities, which made sense
considering their age and abundant
energy levels. Oranges - are
adventurous and like action, naps
aren't on their agendas.
Blues were the second most
numerous. They like hugs and
harmony, loving and caring. Golds
like to be on time, are organized
and predictable. Followed by
greens, the detached, curious and
investigative type.
There is a lot of pressure on this
age group by peers to conform to
be accepted.
But all these colours are good,
and all of us are combinations of
the four, Millson stressed, and the
successful interplay of these
personality types in ourselves and
with others makes society and
situations work well, variety being
the spice .of life. Hopefully the
public school students can use their
new insights into their inner selves
to improve their interactions with
friends, parents and teachers,
according to the seminar outline.
Seaforth Branch 156 of the Royal
Canadian Legion . helped to co-
sponsor the True Colours seminar,
along with pupils at the school.
Millson says she recently held a
similar session with about 75
teenagers for South Huron District
High School students at Exeter,
who might also use insights gained
on the day to better get along with
their employers.
The founder of the program, Don
Lowry, says that by knowing and
accepting your True Colours, and
others, you can "participate in a
unique way in improving the
quality of life for every individual."
TRUE COLOURS - Val Millson, a social worker with the Huron County Board of Education, co-ordinated
a seminar on personalties and how they interact at Seaforth Public School last Thursday.

Correction
A story in the Dec. 28 edition
of The Huron Expositor wrongly
implied that the Seaforth District
Community Centres Committee
of Management was reducing its
size. In fact it was only propos-
ing a reduction in the number of
people 'required for a quorum
from seven to a majority of
committee members.
