Madhumuni ya kukuandikia barua hii ni kukupa mawaidha kuhusu faida za mahusiano mema na wenzako shuleni. Kuanzia ukiwa na uhusiano mzuri na wenzako, utaweza kushirikiana nao. Umoja huu utakufaa masomoni na maishani. Utaweza kujifunza mengi kutoka kwa wenzako. Vilevile ukiwa na matatizo watakusaidia. Kumbuka kuwa umoja ni nguvu utengano ni udhaifu.

Kuongezea mahusiano mema huleta heshima. Wahenga walisema kuwa heshima si utumwa. Ukimheshimu mwenzako atakupenda na kukukubali jinsi ulivyo. Heshima kwa wengine huondoa uadui ambao huleta utengano shuleni. Wanafunzi hushirikiana na kufanya vyema masomoni. Kusema kweli mahusiano mema ni uti wa mgongo wa elimu.

Licha ya hayo amani huletwa na mahusiano mema. Mwanafunzi akitangamana na wengine huweza kuwaelewa nao kumwelewa. Shuleni kuna wanafunzi wenye hali mbalimbali. Utangamano mzuri wa wanafunzi hukuza amani. Amani huwawezesha kusoma vyema bila usumbufu wowote. Huweza kujifunza mengi na kuwa mwerevu zaidi.

Ninatumai nimekuongezea maarifa sahibu yangu. Hakikisha unahusiana vyema na wenzako ili uishi maisha mema. Kwaheri!

Wako wa moyoni,
Amara Mwara
