Event: July 2019, Athens, YouSmile 3d Annual Awards

We participated in the Pan-Hellenic competition ''YouSmile'' with activities that are part of the ''Act Green'' project and they concern about the protection of the environment, the volunteering and the active citizenship. Our students organized cleaning activities in the local community and events about protection of natural wealth. 

"The Smile of the Child" and the European Student Voluntary Network "YouSmile" organized the 3rd Annual Awards. The goal through the awards is to highlight actions and initiatives of children (individual or group), who had a positive impact on their social environment and inspired other children or adults. The 3rd Annual "YouSmile" Awards is a student competition approved by the Ministry of Hellenic Education. Another goal of ''YouSmile'' is the children themselves to inform and be informed about their rights, to participate in actions aimed at defending them, having at their disposal all the appropriate "tools". ''YouSmile'' gives the children the step to talk and act on everything that concerns them, without any intervention from adults. Ιn this competition our school won the first prize. It was a great opportunity to present our ''Act Green'' Erasmus+ project which makes us to feel proud. An event was held at the Michalis Kakogiannis Foundation in Athens and our school was represented by the students of 5th grade, Apostolos Planitsiadis and Dimitra Kekidou. The photos are from the event in Athens. The students were accompanied by the school principal, Maria Tachtsoglou and the teacher, Stefania Arzoglou.
