You are very welcome to attend the first edition of Fontys for Good - together we care!
This winter event on campus Rachelsmolen is all about meaningful connection, fun and cozy vibes. A Christmas market full of snacks, drinks and special items and a programme filled with creativity, music and games will bring warmth to the campus in these cold, dark days. For €5, you will receive four coins that you can spend at a stand or activity of your choice. By doing so, you automatically support a charity foundation, so your contribution gets double value: a fun day for you and support for someone who needs it. Together we care.

People have a huge variety of qualities and values. It is what makes us so complex and unique. But this also makes it impossible to express all our qualities all the time. Some valuable qualities might stay in the back, overpowered by the others. Do you know what your qualities are? What qualities are you not showing to the world?
In this workshop given by our life coach Margit van Tuijl, we will support you in finding your skills and how they may shape your life. After a nice dinner, we will explore your opposing qualities that often go unnoticed,learn to appreciate the ones that go unnoticed, and explore ways to give space for them in our lives. By working with these opposing values, we will learn to let our different qualities complement each other and find a better balance.
With this workshop, we want to give you a better understanding of yourself and the ability to embrace all sides of yourself! Join us to put these qualities on the map and have a more clear picture of where you want them to take you.
Tickets: Regular ticket: €2,50

Do you struggle with your fear of failure? Do you often feel overwhelmed by the pressure to perform? Do you try very hard to avoid failure. Or do you actually procrastinate to avoid the stress that potential failure creates in you? Does it get in the way of your goals? Does it undermine your self-confidence?

Don't panic, doubt is normal and healthy. Talk about it with your student coach and trusted people close to you. Together, you can find a solution that suits you. See also our page on doubts about your study choice. Do you notice that you worry for a long time? Then make an appointment with one of our study career choice advisors or consider the Explore programme.
November 10 is Caregivers' Day. One in five young people grows up with a family member who is chronically ill, often becoming young caregivers. Many students find it normal that they provide this care and therefore don't look for help. Do you care for someone close to you, or are you worried about a loved one? Consider making an appointment with a student counselor or psychologist—Fontys offers various forms of support.
How do you feel? How do you sleep? Are you comfortable giving feedback to your fellow students? Do you set your own boundaries? Do you enjoy both school and private life? It would be great if you can answer these questions positively. But what if you can't? To support your mental fitness and resilience, you can use online self-learning modules. You have free access to these modules with your Fontys account.
