Report on the 125th
Anniversary Schools’ Competition
To celebrate the 125th Anniversary and to raise the
profile of Hellenic Studies in schools, the Society launched a national Schools
Competition on ancient Greece with art themes, factual projects and essays.
There were 4 categories: KS2 (Primary); KS3 (Junior); KS4 (Intermediate); and
KS5 (Sixth-Form/Senior). The Schools Sub-Committee were
delighted to receive 171 entries from 26 different schools. In particular the
Society enjoyed the excellent artwork by junior pupils. The Society awarded
generous cash prizes as well as books videos and other materials on Greece. For a report including the list of prize
winners, please click here.
