St Cyprian’s Fellowship is delighted to be supporting an exciting upcoming visit from acclaimed children’s author Zoe Antoniades, creator of the popular Cally & Jimmy series.

The Fellowship has been working with Zoe and the school to arrange an opportunity for our pupils to meet an author, hear about her work and discover more about the creativity and imagination behind her books.

The children will first be introduced to Zoe through a special online assembly on Wednesday 21 October, ahead of her in-person visit to St Cyprian’s on Monday 9 November.

During her visit, pupils will have the opportunity to engage with Zoe and her stories, explore the world of Cally & Jimmy, and learn more about writing, characters and storytelling.

We are very grateful to Zoe for her enthusiasm about visiting St Cyprian’s and to the school, particularly Natalie Richards, English Lead, who will be working with Zoe to develop the programme for the children.

At St Cyprian’s Fellowship, one of our key aims is to help provide memorable educational and enrichment opportunities that complement the wonderful work taking place in the classroom. We are therefore especially pleased to help bring another exciting experience to our pupils.

We can’t wait to welcome Zoe to St Cyprian’s!

Further details about the visit and opportunities for pupils to purchase signed copies of Zoe’s books will be shared nearer the time.

We are delighted that APOEL FC has once again offered its support to St Cyprian’s Fellowship, this time during the club’s historic centenary year.

As APOEL celebrates 100 years of history in 2026, the club has kindly offered to provide a special centenary shirt to support our fundraising activities at St Cyprian’s.

We are incredibly grateful to APOEL for its continued generosity and for supporting our school community from Nicosia to London. 

An inspiring visit from one of the world’s leading figures in fetal medicine

St Cyprian’s Fellowship was incredibly proud to help welcome Professor Kypros Nicolaides to St Cyprian’s Greek Orthodox Primary Academy for a special visit and talk with pupils.

Professor Nicolaides is internationally renowned for his pioneering work in fetal medicine and has spent his career advancing the care of mothers and unborn babies around the world.

During his visit, Professor Nicolaides spoke to pupils in Years 4, 5 and 6, sharing his experiences and giving the children the opportunity to hear directly from an inspirational Cypriot who has achieved worldwide recognition in his field.

The visit was particularly meaningful for St Cyprian’s. As the UK’s only Greek Orthodox state primary school, we believe it is important for our pupils to meet people who can inspire them to think ambitiously about their own futures while also celebrating the achievements of the wider Greek and Cypriot community.

We are extremely grateful to Professor Nicolaides for giving his time to visit the school, speak with our children and answer their questions.

Bringing inspiring opportunities to our pupils

The Fellowship is committed to working alongside St Cyprian’s to create memorable educational and enrichment opportunities for our children.

Visits such as this are about much more than a single afternoon. We hope they encourage our pupils to be curious, ambitious and confident about what they themselves might achieve in the future.

Our sincere thanks to Professor Kypros Nicolaides for an unforgettable visit to St Cyprian’s.
