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 />
