Greek Language School<br />
nce again, <strong>the</strong> cheerful voices of our<br />
O children of all ages made <strong>the</strong> quiet<br />
hallways come alive with joy.<br />
Enthusiastically, all <strong>the</strong> teachers, students,<br />
parents, and grandparents, participated at<br />
<strong>the</strong> Ayiasmo service on Tuesday September<br />
20, for <strong>the</strong> commencement of <strong>the</strong> <strong>St</strong>.<br />
<strong>Nektarios</strong> Afternoon Greek Language<br />
School, and <strong>the</strong> Play & Learn program.<br />
Ever supportive Fr. <strong>St</strong>eve blessed <strong>the</strong> water, and with Fr. Seraphim<br />
chanting "Σώσον Κύριε τον λαόν Σου...” everyone present felt <strong>the</strong><br />
blessings and presence of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.<br />
Following, <strong>the</strong> Ayiasmo service, students and teachers went to<br />
<strong>the</strong>ir classrooms to begin this year’s lessons.<br />
The classes for Greek Language begin at 4:30 p.m. every<br />
Tuesday afternoon and end at 6:15 p.m. The Play & Learn group<br />
meets every Friday <strong>from</strong> 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. The curriculum<br />
includes <strong>the</strong> study of <strong>the</strong> Greek language, regional customs of<br />
Greece, geography, religion, and Greek dancing.<br />
I would like to welcome<br />
back our returning<br />
students, as well as our<br />
new students, and wish<br />
everyone a successful<br />
school year.<br />
