As the coordinator of these initiatives, I recognize the significant impact they have on my students' lives. The workshops created a unique opportunity for them to express themselves and share their feelings in a creative way, which further strengthened the support and connections within the group. The virtual meeting was particularly inspiring, as students openly exchanged messages of support and encouragement. This exchange fostered a deeper understanding and empathy among them, allowing them to feel less alone in their struggles.

The focus on mental health during our discussions emphasized the importance of emotional well-being and resilience. By sharing personal experiences and offering support to one another, students learned valuable coping strategies and built a sense of community. These interactions helped them realize that it's okay to talk about challenges and seek help when needed.

Additionally, the opportunity to connect with students from other countries enriched the experience, allowing for a meaningful exchange of cultures and perspectives. Hearing different stories and approaches to mental health reinforced the message that we are all connected in our experiences, regardless of geographical boundaries.

As a coordinator, I believe that initiatives like these play a crucial role in promoting awareness around mental health, fostering understanding, and developing empathy. They contribute to shaping my students into open-minded individuals who are equipped to support not only themselves but also their peers as they navigate the challenges of life.

All students and teachers are invited 😍 to share opinions for tomorrow meeting.

Topic

Students of younger grades should introduce themselves...name and surname and tell what their best friend's name is. They can also write a message or make pictures about mental health and decorate it, and with the help of older students, we will translate the messages to other students through the conference.

Older classes talk in English..they should write a message about mental health addressed to a friend..in English and decorate it and read it. After reading the messages of all participants, Serbia, Turkey and Greece. We will sing a song, (if you happy clap your hands) and if anyone wants, they can play something or sing.

It is important that both students and teachers leave their impressions at the end of the conference.

See you tomorrow on 12 for European time. @⁨asime Asime Saydun⁩ @⁨Sanja Nikolic⁩ @⁨Γεωργειάδου Κατερίνα⁩

Konferencija je za mene bila jedno novo iskustvo. Prvi put sam na ovaj način upoznala decu iz drugih zemalja i sa njima komunicirala na engleskom jeziku. Ovo je bila prilika za druženje i sklapanje novih prijateljstva. S nestrpljenjem očekujem novi susret!

Translation: The conference was a new experience for me. For the first time in this way, I met children from other countries and communicated with them in English. This was an opportunity to socialize and make friends. I look forward to a new meeting!
