Students are: Sunčica Djukanović, Sumeja Hadžialić, Sandra Džemaili and Jovana Jotanović. These are the most active students and students with the highest score of grades. They have expressed their immense gratitude to Denis and Anela, and we also thank a lot for not forgetting BOSANA and for giving such a wonderful example to other students. Thank you very much, Anela and Denise.
