Fethiye girl wins Atat\u00fcrk essay contest in southwest Turkey<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The writing contest among primary school students in southwestern Fethiye was won by 12-year-old Nicole Melisa Pranic. The topic of the contest was, \u201cIf Atat\u00fcrk were alive, how would he have wanted Turkey to be?\u201d Pranic, who has a German father and a Turkish mother, won among 61 entries with her essay named \u201cOur eternal leader.\u201d<\/p>\n
The writing contest was organized by \u00d6l\u00fcdeniz Municipality in southwest Turkey on the occasion of April 23 National Sovereignty and Children\u2019s Holiday. The results of the contest was made public at the Fethiye Tourism, Promotion, Education, Culture and Environment Foundation, or FETAV, building with a ceremony. Several parents and students attended the event.<\/p>\n
\u00d6l\u00fcdeniz Mayor Keramettin Y\u0131lmaz announced the winners of the contest. Pranic won the contest among 61 students from nine schools. An eighth grader at \u00d6zel Ata Primary School, Pranic read aloud her composition. An outstanding part of her essay was, \u201cIf Atat\u00fcrk were alive, opposing students would not have fought. And would not have killed each other.\u201d<\/p>\n
Pranic said: \u201cAs every child born as a Turkish citizen, I started to learn about Atat\u00fcrk at an early age. We learn about him, his principles and his view of life first from family members then continue learning about him all through our school life. I wish I had the opportunity to know him. When Atat\u00fcrk made the hat and dress revolution, he wanted Turkish women to dress according to a modern society. In today\u2019s Turkey, Atat\u00fcrk would have seen many deficiencies in this area.\u201d<\/p>\n
