Annual School Dance

September 2011

For parents and teachers, it was an "out of this world" dance. For the Greek Community Schools' students, it was a magical journey in space through their imagination and creative spirits. The Annual School Dance, themed "The Solar System" was held at Olympic Hall on Saturday August 6 at 7.30pm with the attendance of almost 400 Community members. From planets, to stars and space ships, this year’s theme was depicted all around Olympic Hall’s spacey decoration with the young students living it up.

Although the decoration took patrons to distant worlds, the aromas that came out of the kitchen weren’t alien at all! Grilled delicacies, sausages, shashlicks, chips, salads and the popular honey puffs kept everyone "grounded" but satisfied nonetheless. The students’ creativity and imagination as well as their talent produced an amazing show with poem citations, sketches and musical performances, all revolving around the solar system.

Ms Sylvia Cassoudakis, General Secretary of the Greek Orthodox Community, in opening the formal part of the night thanked everyone for coming along and praised both students and their teachers for their great efforts. The school dance continued with the raffle draw and one lucky student won a Nintendo DSi which was the main prize.

Meanwhile, and for the first time in the Annual School Dance’s history, students received awards of Excellency sponsored by The Tramountanas Association. The three students that received the awards were Maria Aslanidis (Year 2 Group), John Pappas (Year 3-7 Group) and Kyriakos Nikias (Year 8-12 Group). The students’ performances and award presentations gave way to some serious dancing as the students of Olympic Dance Group showed some talent and skills on the dance floor.

The fun continued until late in the night with everyone making it to the dance floor as "Trio Meraki" band played popular Greek songs for every taste.
