we were fully intending to send our 2 to ISOP but after much soul searching and visiting various schools, reading the forums and talking to people out here we took the plunge and sent our 2 to the local school in peyia, they do not speak greek but the school give them intensive greek lessons (every day) they also put them back a year in their education so they do not fall behind in other words the first year they learn greek and then carry on from where they were. the local school has 45 english kids who all live local this was a major factor in our decision as we felt that they would settle in easier if they had friends locally. - so far so good.

we are also attending greek lessons run at the school - it is hard going !
