Greek school

Greek School

  To help parents to teach our language to our younger generation and maintain our heritage, we operate our Greek Sunday School on the same days as our Orthodox services. The School provides Greek education from Reception to GCSE level and is open to all children of our community. Details of the School's Curriculum can be provided on request.

Classes

  We run 5 or sometimes 6 classes, based on pupils' age and abilities in the Greek language:  

† A Reception class for young children  

† A GCSE class for older children with adequate knowledge of the Greek language, and

3 or 4 intermediate classes:  

† 2 classes for bilingual pupils and more confident Greek speakers/readers, and  

† 2 classes for English speakers to develop their confidence with the Greek language.

  The School classes run from 11.00am until 13.15pm, with a break of 15 minutes from 12.00pm to 12.15pm. Parents are encouraged to stay for the liturgy while their children are in class, as we try to co-ordinate the class finishing time to coincide with the end of the liturgy and in time for the children to take Holy Communion.
