Our message of peace is the result of additional lessons in history. Students of the 5th (11 years old) and 8th (14 years old) grades participated in the creation of the project. Since there was a war in our country less than 20 years ago, we are one of the European nations that is most painfully aware the value of peace.
The students were extremely enthusiastic about the idea and very creative and engaged in the implementation. The main language of the message is English, which is the most well-known internationally, but we also use our native Croatian language, as well as short fragments of German, Italian, Spanish, Greek and Ukrainian. We chose Greek as a tribute to the host, and Ukrainian in the context of the current war.
