Briefly about the main thing
- video from 1st kindergarten Ano Llosia shows the principal yelling at 4-5 year old children;
- the teacher reacted sharply to damage to the property of a recently renovated building;
- after the entry was published, the parents of one of the girls came to the kindergarten;

- child’s father admitted that he hit the director;
- the moment of the attack was also caught on video;
- the director was hospitalized with head injuries and a broken nose;
- Education and law enforcement agencies are investigating both episodes.
First there was a video with children
The story began after the publication of an entry from 1st kindergarten Ano Llosia. In it, the director of the institution speaks extremely harshly to preschool children.
The reason, according to Greek media reports, was damage to the property of a recently renovated kindergarten. The teacher raises his voice and uses expressions that anger the parents.
In particular, Greek publications cite her words threatening children because they damage property.
The first MEGA video is the director shouting at the children:
After the recording was distributed, the Directorate of Basic Education began official investigation – ΕΔΕwhich should establish the circumstances of the incident and evaluate the actions of the teacher.
Parents came to kindergarten
However, the story continued. The parents of one of the four-year-old pupils came to kindergarten.
Several Greek media outlets, including ProtoThema and ProNews, explicitly state that parents are Roma community.
During the conflict, the girl’s father attacked the director. The recording published by MEGA shows a man striking a woman, after which she falls and begins to call for help.
Second MEGA video – the moment of the attack:
According to Greek media reports, everything happened in a kindergarten and in the presence of other people. The victim was taken to the hospital.
The injuries were serious
The incident was initially described as multiple blows, but later reports emerged of more serious consequences.
The director was diagnosed head injuries and broken nose. The Star also reported traumatic brain injuries.
Thus, we are no longer just talking about a verbal conflict between parents and a teacher, but about an attack, the consequences of which required hospitalization.
Father: “I lost my temper”
Later, the father of a four-year-old girl publicly admitted that he hit the director.
In a conversation with MEGA, the man stated that “lost my composure” and struck the woman twice.
At the same time, the parents claim that the reason for their indignation was not only the video of screaming, but also the director’s attitude towards their daughter. Greek publications also report statements from the family about alleged racist treatment of the child.
These charges are parents’ version and are examined separately as part of the investigation.
The third plot of MEGA is the development of the story and the explanation of the father:
Two investigations at the same time
Now the competent authorities will have to deal with two different stories at once.
The first concerns director’s behavior with young children: how acceptable were her methods and statements and whether there were disciplinary violations.
The second is a physical attack on the director herself and bodily harm caused to her.
Representatives of educational authorities emphasize that possible violations on the part of the teacher do not give parents the right to lynching.
The kindergarten has recently been renovated
Additional background to this story is the state of the institution itself. The kindergarten was renovated shortly before the conflict as part of a government program “Μαριέττα Γιαννάκου”.
According to school representatives, the children damaged the recently renovated property, which caused a sharp reaction from the director. Parents, for their part, consider her behavior to be completely disproportionate to the age of the students.
All these circumstances must now be officially established.
