It is carnival time in Greece. During the last days the children of the Second Primary School of Vrontados prepared masks and different handicrafts already. At Friday, the last school-day before the long weekend, our school had a great carnival celebration. <\/span><\/p>\n

Until 10 o’clock in the morning each class had a small program on it’s own. The parents prepared delicious food such as pizza, cheese pie or even self-made chocolate-cake, so that the children could take breakfast together. Everybody wore a pretty costume, even the teachers. We had some little princesses, police-women and men, witches, pirates,… every child was dressed differently.<\/span>It was a lot of fun to show the costumes to each other and to act fittingly to them. <\/span><\/p>\n

After breakfast the whole school went outside to the schoolyard. Music was played everywhere, the children were running around, dancing and singing or playing football. Paper-streamers and confetti flew around and in the classrooms they covered the whole floor. The school looked very different this day. <\/span>Together with the teachers we volunteers joined the children. We danced to Greek and English pop-songs and made a polonaise. Seriously, we never enjoyed our work so much. <\/span><\/p>\n

It was very nice to have one day, just celebrating and speaking. Everyone was laughing and having fun. Carnival in this primary school on Chios-Island will stay in our minds for sure.<\/span><\/p>\n
