CALENDAR EVENTS

It was with great pleasure that we accepted the invitation of the "Pisina" Nursery School to an online discussion with parents. Dimitra Kontova, SKEP's Inclusion & Accessibility Consultant, had the opportunity to share with them her daily life as a wheelchair user, to talk about the concepts of accessibility and inclusion as well as to answer all their questions.

On May 2nd 2023, the students of the A4 Lyceum department carried out a very interesting activity on the topic: "A different lesson for students with deafblindness", organized by the BTEC-GCE department of Doukas School under the coordination of the Director, Ms. Katerina Traga and the Department's Counselor, Dr Sophia Papadopoulou.

More specifically, after the students' tour of the site www.hoponinclusion.com they came up with the idea of initiating a Biology course for deafblind children, creating cell organelles with the help of BTEC – GCE students. The result was very impressive!

Participation of Doukas High School students, Sofia Papadopoulou, Molecular Biologist - Biology Professor at the Doukas High School, Menelaos Tsaousis - Mobility & Orientation Trainer for the visually impaired and  SKEP's partners.

In the context of SKEP's Disability Awareness Educational Programs, a first online meeting / brainstorming was held regarding the implementation of a students project related to visual impairment... stay tuned!

Participants: SKEP's partners -with and without disabilities- together with Sofia Papadopoulou, Molecular Biologist - Biology Professor at the Doukas High School.
