With the approval of the Ministry of Education and Religious Affairs, Mandoulides Schools, held the “Simulation of the European Parliament Plenary Session” on Thursday and Friday, 18th and 19th January 2024, for 10th and 11th Grade students from all schools in Greece and the Greek diaspora.
The simulation process consists of the foundation of eight committees, to which more than 170 students will be allocated. Each of these committees proposes a bill to vote on and receives the corresponding questions and rebuttals to its individual articles from the other committees. The objective is, through a fruitful and constructive dialogue, to issue eight bills that will provide solutions to important issues by taking a vote.
The event is supported by the European Parliament Office in Greece, and the Delegation of the European Commission in Greece.
The simulation took place on the premises of Mandoulides Schools (12th km of National Road of Thessaloniki – Νea Moudania, Thermi, Thessaloniki), where there is a 500-seat theatre, 4 ultra-modern sports arenas, art, computer science, physics, chemistry, and biology laboratories, a library, and open courts.
You can watch the 7th Simulation of the European Parliament Plenary Session on the Schools’ YouTube channel.
