The home plays a critical role not just in child development, but also in developing the skills of citizenship of our pupils. As a collaborative work we decided that pupils from all schools would write about their homes, and represent them in drawings. This cross-curricular work developed language, art and craft, and ICT skills. Pupils were proud to write about their homes and have their work shown to their partners. Here is link to 47 works by six-year old pupils Escola les Acacies. http://www.slideshare.net/raquel_ht/our-home16339021 Pupils in Stockholm created a model of Gamla Stan and pupils in Asvestohori first learned how the citizens of Byzantine lived and then created a model of Constantinople. For the pupils involved this was a journey in another time and space, a journey that made them think in a different way, because of the different problems facing citizens at that time.
Stockholm featured two pupils as presenters of the school performance for visiting teachers. Moreover, pupils acted as guides to show teachers the sights of Gamla Stan. These are good examples of a school nurturing the citizenship skills of its pupils.
Hellenic Republic
The pupils of 6th class of Asvestohori school, with their teacher Nikos Voudrislis, prepared a presentation about the political system and the administrative divisions of Hellas.
One of those mirror debates debated I am free, so I can do what I want or I am free, so I have to be careful with what I do Those who were in charge of the first argument smiled. They thought it was going to be easy. But surprise! The other side had much more things to say. It was very interesting noticing that the team defending total non responsible freedom was not as comfortable as they imagined. In fact, both teams knew that there are rights and duties.

In Ancient Greek, Demos translates as people, and Kratos translates as force or power. Democracy is made up from these words and essentially means power of the people. Hellas is now a parliamentary republic. It has 325 municipalities run by mayors and municipal councils.
