The students were excited to share their impressions of the Youth Exchange "Timeless Games", which took place in Athens from 20-28 February 2025.
A group of 7 students from our school participated in this project, together with participants from Georgia, Turkey and Greece. The aim of the project was to promote integration, inclusiveness, and interaction, which traditional games can uniquely offer. Participants were engaged in a fun and fully active games that strengthened the overall group's dynamic; provide mental exercise and broad scope for social and interactive learning experiences.
