“OXI Day”: The student who marched alone in Apollonas, Naxos

One and only schoolgirl marched again this year in the celebration of the national anniversary of October 28, 1940, in Apollonas, Naxos.

Ephramina attends the sixth grade and is the only child in the school, in the picturesque village of Apollonas in Naxos.
