The Vocational Promotion and Guidance Branch, operating under the Western Thrace
Minority University Graduates Association, held the second session of the event in the field
of “Educational and Creative Drama” with primary school fifth and sixth grade students on
Saturday, May 17, 2025.
The second session of the event covered the topic of “Peer Bullying”.
Esra Moustafa, who received training in educational and creative drama, started her work with
the theme of “Recognizing Peer Bullying” in this session. The event continued with the
children sharing their personal experiences. While the participants internalized the emotions
they felt through empathy, they carried out activities supported by drama games aimed at
developing alternative positive behaviors. The intended awareness was conveyed to the
children through the game.
These types of activities carried out within groups aim to develop students’ emotional
intelligence, while also providing them with the skills to identify bullying, empathize and
establish friendly relationships. These activities encourage participants to express their
complaints openly, helping them realize that bullying is a situation that can be prevented with
appropriate methods. Such activities are of great importance in creating healthier
environments for children.
