Running with Purpose: The English School Team Honors Philip Georghiades at Quantum Nicosia Marathon

Nearly 80 of our teachers, students, parents and ALUMNI proudly represented The English School and participated in the 5K Corporate Team event at the Quantum Nicosia Marathon, held on Sunday, December 8th, 2024.

The English School Running Team ran to honour Philip Georghiades, a teacher and runner who meant so much to The English School community. 

 The English School Running Team came 7th place out 47 teams!

 Boys
1.     Matthaios Ioannou 20.26
2.     Gerasimos Panayides 21.03
3.     Zilin Su Zilin 22.54
 
Girls

This event was particularly significant as we honoured Philip’s memory with the motto runningwithphilip, while successfully raising funds for the charity PASICAF.

Sponsorship from ESPGA and Runner Store not only made this possible but has also created a lasting impact for such an important cause.

The discount offered by the Runner Store on purchasing items is an incredible bonus: the benefits are available to all members of The English School community by presenting the school or staff ID card:
