High-achieving students from Sydney’s Greek Orthodox schools were formally recognised this week for their outstanding results in the 2025 NSW Higher School Certificate examinations.

The awards ceremony took place on Tuesday, February 17, at the Great Hall of St Andrew’s Theological College, where students from St Euphemia College, All Saints Grammar and St Spyridon College were honoured for their academic excellence.
