How are you?

 Language Day, 26 Eyl 2025, ΘΕΣΣΑΛΟΝΙΚΗ, Yunanistan

On Friday, September 26th, our school joined in the celebration of the European Day of Languages. This year’s theme was: “Languages open hearts and minds.” During the breaks, students took part in a fun language challenge where they could win small prizes! Each student picked a card with a European language and discovered how to say “How are you?” in that language. After scanning the QR code, they listened to how it’s pronounced — and then gave it a try in front of the camera in order to create a multilingual video celebrating the beauty of Europe’s languages. The prizes included candies, bracelets, bookmarks, and stickers kindly sent to our school by the Council of Europe for the occasion. A big congratulations to everyone who took part! Let’s keep our hearts and minds open to new languages and cultures!
