We are happy to announce that our school was among the 16 first-prize winners in our category-short film. We participated in this competition organised by the Greek and Cypriot Ministries of Education with a short film about young Cypriots in England and how they identify themselves in a multicultural environment. What makes it important is that we got this place, among 1400 entries, from schools in Greece, Cyprus and the Diaspora. Massive thanks to everyone involved especially students who took part and became role models for the rest! It’s such a great moment for our school and community!
