Within the Youth Counseling Center for 1.,2. ,3. ,4. Creative workshops on the topic of Self-esteem and tolerance were held in the 5th grade, led by the head of the Counseling Center Linda Bakotić, psychologist Yvette Kalaba and pedagogue Petra Dominis Žura.

The goal of the "Self-esteem" workshop is to make students aware of the importance of self-esteem through short lectures, interactive exercises and discussions. A positive self-image is an important protective factor, the development of which is important to strengthen when working with young people, but also
in this process it is necessary to be in balance. Cultivate a healthy and positive attitude towards yourself, but also towards others
people from our environment. Young people with a positive self-image and high self-esteem cope with challenges and navigate life more easily, and are more confident in their abilities.

The aim of the "Tolerance" workshop is to make students aware through interactive exercises that tolerance is usually learned by model, that is, by watching someone else who has developed tolerant forms and patterns of behavior, and thus we adopt them. Through various interactive exercises, students learn the ways in which it is possible to encourage a person to mutual respect for diversity and cooperation.
