Event Details

The Greek Community of Melbourne (GCM) Schools are excited to invite children to an engaging winter school holiday program called "Red Thread Tied." This program will introduce young participants to the magical world of traditional Greek fairy tales and will take place on the following dates and locations:

  • Monday, July 8, at Huntingdale Hall
  • Wednesday, July 10, at the Hellenic Centre
  • Thursday, July 11, at Bellevue P.S., Balwyn North

Designed for children aged 5 to 10, regardless of their proficiency in Greek, the program features beloved folk tales such as "The Sweetest Bread" and "The Good Lady and the Twelve Months." Through these stories, children will embark on a journey into the rich Greek tradition, exploring elements of folk culture.

The primary language of instruction will be Greek, and the program will offer a variety of immersive activities and games. Children will have the opportunity to learn about the seasons, express their emotions, engage in traditional dances, create crafts, cook, and discover the process of bread-making from field to table.

Each day of the program focuses on a different fairy tale with unique activities, allowing children to attend more than one day for a diverse experience.
