AGIA NAPA PRIMARY SCHOOL - CYPRUS

Hello. We are the “Agia Napa Primary school” in Cyprus. Our School is located in Agia Napa, a small tourist town on the southwestern part of Cyprus, very close to the occupied town of Famagusta. Our school is the biggest public primary school of Famagusta area and it has 290 pupils. In our school we have also a department for pupils with special needs. A big percentage of our pupils (40% ) come from different European countries, like the U.K , Bulgaria, Romania, Poland and Russia or from mixed marriage. The percentage of foreign students attending the school keeps rising over the past few years because a lot of people come to Agia Napa either as workers on tourist field or as immigrants willing to live in a quiet seaside resort near the town of Agia Napa. Last year Cyprus won “Eurodance 2010” with the “ First Elementary School of Xylofagou” .We hope that we will do the same with our school this year.
