To my 5th and 6th grade pupils

Dear children, how are you?

I hope you are all well, safe and sound. The times are hard but arguing and complaining doesn’t change anything. Let’s all try to make things easier for one another. Help, feel, support, encourage one another and we will get over this soon #menoumespiti.

I thought to provide you with things I find interesting and helpful, so...

Let’s try some activities that may help pass our time more enjoyably while we are all staying indoors.

But first of all…

Let’s all pay tribute to a person we love but Heaven chose to Steal from us!

To our wonderful teacher, Mr Christos Arvanitakis

We all miss you so much,

We cannot grasp the fact that you are not here with us,

You will always live in our hearts,

We will always remember you when we look at the sky and the stars,

The sea-like colour of your eyes, your encouraging tapping on our shoulders,

Υour firm voice, always supporting and helping us,

Αre our guiding lights!
