During the Easter holidays, the schools of the Greek Community of Melbourne (GCM) have organised a fun and creative program for children aged 4-10 years old.

This program combines tradition with creativity, offering children a unique opportunity to experience the magic of this great celebration.

The program will take place at three different locations and on different days:

  • Thursday, April 10 – Balwyn North Campus: Belle Vue PS, 20 Highview Rd, Balwyn North
  • Monday, April 14 – Huntingdale Campus: Huntingdale Hall, Germain St, Oakleigh South
  • Wednesday, April 16 – Greek Centre (CBD): 168 Lonsdale Street, Melbourne

Participants can choose to attend either the full six-hour program (9:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.) or a three-hour session (9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.).

The workshop includes reading Easter stories, learning traditional Easter songs, cooking traditional Easter treats, and engaging in creative crafts and hands-on activities.
