Greek Independence Day, 25th March, was celebrated with a fanfare this year in the St Lawrence Junior School. A short play was sweetly performed by the hard-working pupils of Years 5 & 6 in colourful costumes. The theme of the play was the beginning of the Greek Revolution in the Aegean islands.
Our pupils presented scenes from everyday life of the early 19th century and showed how these islands collaborated to rebel against the Ottoman Empire. Traditional songs and folk dances were skilfully performed by Junior School pupils. The play was written by our very talented Ms Tsirigoti, and she was assisted with the organisation of the whole production by her colleague, Ms Sapountzaki. Well done to all - what a successful celebration it was!
