Beyond language instruction, the Greek School of Exeter places great importance on connecting students with Greek and Cypriot culture through a variety of activities and celebrations throughout the school year.

Our extracurricular and cultural programme helps children engage with traditions, develop confidence, and build community spirit through shared experiences.

Cultural Activities

• National Holiday Celebrations
  Students take part in performances and presentations for important dates such as Greek Independence Day (25 March) and Ohi Day (28 October), learning songs, poems, and historical context.

• Seasonal and Religious Celebrations
  Events may include carol singing (κάλαντα) at Christmas, Easter crafts and traditions, and other seasonal customs.

• Workshops and Thematic Days
  These may include cooking, traditional dancing, storytelling, art activities, or film viewings related to Greek culture and history.

• School Outings & Events
  Occasionally, the school organises trips, picnics, or gatherings open to the wider community.

These activities are made possible thanks to the involvement of the parents association, our dedicated teachers, and volunteers.
