GREEK LANGUAGE WORLD DAY 2024

GREEK LANGUAGE WORLD DAY 2024

Our school participated with great joy in the events for the World Day of the Greek Language, celebrated on February 9th. This year, the festive celebration was dedicated specifically to the first Greek Nobel laureate, Giorgos Seferis. Students of all ages from our school presented poems and songs by the esteemed Greek poet. The Ambassador of Greece, Mrs. Magdalini Nikolaou, and the Ambassador of Cyprus, Mr. Louis Telemachou, honoured us with their presence at the event.

Language Connect Summit 2023

Language Connect Summit 2023

The Greek School of Ireland was immensely proud to have represented the vibrant Hellenic Community of Ireland and to have had the opportunity to promote the rich and beautiful Greek language at the 2023 Languages Connect Summit. At this summit, which took place on 14th October in Dublin’s Convention Center, our teachers delved into cutting-edge teaching and learning strategies, attended inspiring talks, and participated in workshops alongside over 1,500 language teachers based in Ireland. We also got to engage with the public, with other language teachers as well as with leading language institutions based in Ireland, promoting our School, exchanging ideas, and sharing teaching and learning practices.

We take this opportunity to thank and congratulate their teachers and most importantly themselves and their parents/guardians. 
Please see below the year plan. We made it taking into account last year’s timetable and including this year’s up to date changes as we know them. Please proceed with your registration (if you haven’t done so yet) in order to see if we have to add other classes or to change the timetable.
