This study aimed at describing the phenomenon of children at elementary-age who actively smoked. Using a qualitative study type, students, head of school, and student parents as the key informants were approached. The process of data collection was done by interviews, observations and searching student documents. The obtained data were analyzed by using an interaction model from Miles and Huberman.

The efforts of the school to deter such negative effects by promoting character education and repressing actions through light physical punishment and parental involvement.
