* Due to difficult weather conditions, for safety reasons, the operation of the Ice Rink and outdoor games (trampoline, inflatable games) on Saturday, November 30th, is postponed. We continue indoors at the school with crafts, balloon creations, face painting, and Santa Claus!
Santa’s magical sleigh will make a stop at the School of Vamvakou this year before the start of the enchanted journey to flood it with the Christmas spirit. As of November 30th, the basketball court will be covered with ice and transformed into an enormous Ice Rink ready for figure skating and swirls at a 1000 m mountain top altitude. Meanwhile, a six-seater trampoline will spring up on the schoolyard for leaps towards the sky alongside giant inflatable games that promise wild Christmas adventures, creating the most fun-filled holiday memories for the children!
The Christmas atmosphere is enriched for the whole month by thousands of sparkling lights and decorated Christmas trees, while the festive setting is complemented by educational programs, gastronomic quests, dj sets and theatrical performances. And if you get hungry, sweet-smelling vamvacookies and melomakarona from the Women’s Cooperative of Vamvakou, “Vamvakia”, delicious snacks and hot drinks that even Rudolph will smell from afar, await you in the canteen of Vamvakou Santa School!
The School of Vamvakou changes and transforms into a fun workshop of Christmas dreams for the first time in its history, ready to welcome the young and old this holiday season. We hope to see you!
We would like to warmly thank the General Hospital of Laconia for its valuable help in terms of medical services provided throughout the operation of the ice rink.
