Mandoulides\u00a0Schools, with love and respect for\u00a0the\u00a0Greek tradition, have\u00a0established\u00a0the Traditional Dance Festival as a longstanding institution. Staying true to their annual appointment, they organized the Festival on Wednesday, February 11, 2026, offering a beautiful and moving evening.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The event opened with the Alumni\u00a0\u2013\u00a0School\u00a0Parents Group, who performed dances from Pelion with remarkable enthusiasm. Then, all students of the 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades presented dances from Epirus, Macedonia, and Thrace to an audience of parents, relatives, and friends,\u00a0earning the warmest applause. The baton was then passed to the students\u00a0of\u00a0the Elementary School\u2019s traditional dance clubs, who performed Pontic dances and energized the crowd.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, the Junior High dance group and, of course, the large and dynamic High School group presented dances from Constantinople, Thrace, and Macedonia, closing the celebration to thunderous applause. As worthy successors of the generations that have passed through the\u00a0Schools, their vitality, passion, and\u00a0dynamism\u00a0demonstrated\u00a0their deep connection to the cultural activities of the institution.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The next gathering was set for the following school year, in an atmosphere filled with emotion and heartfelt sentiments.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n \n<\/svg>picture gallery<\/a><\/a><\/a><\/a><\/a><\/a>
