The Mytilenian Brotherhood of Sydney and New South Wales continued its proud association with Kingsgrove North High School on Thursday, December 12, presenting the prestigious Odysseus Elytis Academic Award for Excellence.

The annual award, named in honour of the renowned Greek poet from Lesvos, was presented to Nicholas Haralambous for his exemplary academic performance.

The award was presented by the President of the Mytilenian Brotherhood, Peter Psomas, alongside committee member Helen Kouroulis.

The presentation highlighted the enduring relationship between the Brotherhood and Kingsgrove North High School, underscoring their shared commitment to academic excellence and cultural heritage.

“We would like to wish Nicholas and all the other students the very best in their future studies,” the Mytilenian Brotherhood wrote on Facebook, reflecting their ongoing support for student achievement.

On behalf of the committee, the Mytilenian Brotherhood also took the opportunity to acknowledge and thank the school’s principal, Angelo Stassos, for his remarkable 40 years of service in the education sector.

The Odysseus Elytis Academic Award remains a significant marker of excellence, inspiring students to strive for academic success while honouring the cultural legacy of one of Greece’s most celebrated literary figures.
