The event "The Great Beginning," eagerly anticipated by students in Banja Luka, was held at the plaza near the multifunctional hall in Mladen Stojanović Park.
Hundreds of students, parents, and Banja Luka residents attended the event organized by the City of Banja Luka to mark the beginning of the new school year.
The Mayor’s Advisor, Milada Šukalo, expressed her satisfaction with the large turnout and highlighted that the students enjoyed a rich program.
- We prepared a variety of educational, sports, and entertainment activities, and our teenagers particularly enjoyed the performances by Ana Lazarević, Danilo Milosavljević, the Music Studio 'MaMa VoX,' and our 'Vrapčići,' said Šukalo.
Šukalo added that in addition to free textbooks, students also received gifts such as school supplies, equipment, free tickets to the theater and the City Olympic swimming pool, as well as free rides on the Dajak boat.
- Through these activities, we wanted to ease and brighten our students' return to school, their great beginning, emphasized Šukalo.
