The fourth questioning session at Pofalići Elementary School was held in the school premises, in the middle of May. The questioning was held with students of the 6th grade in the BJK, HJK, SJK class, and was facilitated by the teacher Selma Muzaferija. The session started with a chosen question: How well do we actually know our school friends?
The students asked how much their school friends actually see and know the true face of the person from the class. They wondered whether family problems can cause students to have a second face, hidden emotions, fears, shame, anger, aggression, anger. They asked how much we all really try to help a friend if we notice that something is wrong with him/her, if his/her behavior has changed, if he/she has withdrawn into himself, if he/she studies less well?
They said that in the school mostly the teachers lead the classes, and the students rarely get a chance to express their opinion. We have to talk about all this, about various problems, to be open (but not with everyone, because someone can use it against us).
We need to cheer up, help, and talk to friends who are feeling bad. We should ask each other how we can help, offer some advice. We should dedicate our time to our friends to get to know them better. Children are the mirror of their parents, so parents should be careful how they treat them.
In schools, there are psychologists, teachers, class teachers whom we can always turn to. Students who have the same problems should talk to each other and help each other. Phones and social networks are one of the reasons why children do not meet and talk to each other.
They concluded that we can get to know each other by talking, playing, hanging out live, not online, and going on nature trips. We need to know what our school friends think about us, so if something bothers them about us, we can fix it. This is how we will preserve our friendship and nurture beautiful relationships.
