Parent Teacher Interviews 2024

Parent-Teacher Interviews are an opportunity to meet your students’ teacher in person and a great way to promote communication between home and the school. They enable both the teacher and families to work together toward their student’s learning and social wellbeing. Interviews mainly aim to discuss student performance and progress at Greek School. Student presence at the interview is encouraged.

Please book your interview time now by following this link.

In the Steps of Digenis Akritas

On Saturday 1st June, students from Years 3 to 10 visited the Exhibition with their teachers and experienced the presence of Hellenism in Asia Minor, Pontos, Constantinople and Cyprus through a range of artefacts and displays. The students were very excited to learn about the history of these Greek regions and many parents expressed their gratitude.

This Friday (June 7) we will be making another visit to this special exhibition with students from Friday classes, Years 5 to 12.

Here you will find some photographs from the students excursion to the Exhibition. More photos will be added after Friday.
The Exhibition will be open until the 20th June at 62 Willesden Road, Hughesdale opposite the Greek Church of Sts Anargiri.

Raising Greek-English Bilinguals (9th June)

Pharos Group is presenting a series of seminars about raising bilingual students. Raising Greek-English bilingual children in Melbourne, or any multicultural society, holds immense significance. It is not just about preserving one's heritage, but about equipping the next generation with invaluable skills and perspectives. Melbourne's rich cultural diversity fosters a unique environment for bilingualism. Bilingual children gain cognitive advantages, such as enhanced problem-solving and multitasking abilities.
The next seminar is on this Sunday June 9.
Please follow this link to the details of this important seminar for families/parents.

Finally a video from us to you to watch, on why being bilingual at an early age is the best for the brain of our children... Watch this video here, as reported by the BBC.
Reminder about Parking - You can park in the designated parking area between Malvern Valley Primary and the Phoenix Park Community Centre at Rob Roy Road. There is also parking in the streets around the school (please read parking signs to avoid parking fines).


Best wishes,
Andrea Garivaldis
