Our School

Our school is in Ptolemaida at Nosokomeiou Street. It is the 10^th Primary School of Ptolemaida, but we share the same building with the 4^th Primary School. The yard is big and nice. At the break, children buy food from the canteen. Some children go to the football court and play football, sometimes with plastic bottles. At the hour of gymnastics, classes of the 4^th and 10^th Primary school go to the gym to play games or to train. In the computer room there is a headlight and many computers. The library is next to the main entrance and near the recycling bucket of batteries. There are a lot of books and stories, board games and dictionaries.
