Pairing of Kindergarten & 5th Grade Students – A Unique Experience of Coexistence! 

Listen to this article

A special educational activity took place at E. Mandoulides Schools, where Kindergarten children were paired with 5th grade students! Young and older children met with enthusiasm and formed bonds of friendship, cooperation, and mutual respect through creative, cross-curricular activities. 

Physical Education:
They played team games, ran relay races, and enjoyed activities that highlighted teamwork and fair play. The “big siblings” took care of the younger children, helping them overcome hesitation and creating a safe, encouraging environment. 

Visual Arts:
With brushes, colors, and imagination, they created paintings and crafts together- expressing the message of unity and coexistence. The joy of sharing was evident in every piece of artwork. 

Greek Language:
An introductory activity featured word games, short presentations, and simple questions that helped the children introduce themselves, share who they are, and discover common interests. Communication became a game, and the atmosphere was warm and friendly. 

The children’s smiles and excitement at each new meeting are the strongest proof that when different ages coexist with love and creativity, unforgettable experiences are born. 

Because at our school… we grow up together!
