On Saturday the 23rd of September seven pupils from our school took part in UNESCO’s celebration for International Peace Day. The 21st of September is the day devoted by the United Nations General Assembly to International Peace with the aim of promoting and strengthening the ideas of peace and non-violence among all nations. The day started in the theatre of Epidavros, a UNESCO World Heritage site, with participants engaging in a dialogue on world peace and reflecting on questions such as What is world peace? How can we achieve it? What stands in the way of peace today? and included a visit to the Archaeological Museum of Epidavros. The celebrations continued in Nafplio, the first capital of Greece as a free nation and a really pretty town that has a lot to offer to any visitor. Overall, it was a rewarding experience enjoyed by everyone on a glorious autumn day!
