    Θερμούς χαιρετισμούς από τους μαθητές του Α3 τμήματος του 4ου Γυμνασίου Πετρούπολης!
    Το σχολείο μας έχει 370 παιδιά ηλικίας 11-15 ετών και βρίσκεται στη Δυτική Αττική σ’ έναν λόφο με θέα όλη την Αθήνα. Είναι η πρώτη χρονιά που συμμετέχουμε στο πρόγραμμα του Ερατοσθένη και είμαστε ενθουσιασμένοι γιατί ενισχύεται η προσπάθειά μας να καταλάβουμε τον πλανήτη μας, την έννοια του χρόνου, την ακρίβεια των μετρήσεων και άλλα από το αναλυτικό πρόγραμμα της Φυσικής, περισσότερο όμως, γιατί μας ανοίγεται ένα παράθυρο στον κόσμο, χωρίς φραγμούς.
    Σας ευχαριστούμε για την ευκαιρία που μας δίνετε και ανυπομονούμε για τις συναντήσεις μας τα μεσημέρια.

    Our school has 370 students aged 11-15 and is located in Western Attica on a hill overlooking all of Athens.
    We are the students of A3 class and this is our first year in Eratosthenes project. We are very excited knowing that our cooperation will support our efforts to understand
    basics about our planet, measurements and accuracy, time and more in Physics material of our curriculum… but we are more thrilled feeling we are members of a project that is a window to a world beyond borders.
    Looking forward meeting you out there…. during solar noons!
