St Lawrence College, Athens

St Lawrence College (SLC) is a private independent school in Athens, Greece. It was founded in 1980 by Jack Meyer (the founder of Millfield in England), to provide a British education for any family desiring it (usually so the pupil could later attend university in the United Kingdom or abroad). It started with 60 children, and rapidly expanded with a present student body of over 800 at preschool, junior school and high school level.

The current headmaster is Mr. P.A.Holden.

Hellinikon campus

The old campus of St Lawrence College was located in Hellinikon from where it operated for 22 years. The Campus was spread out over 4 areas with gardens and a view to the sea. The buildings were located next to the old Hellinikon airport, the former international airport of Athens and the Hellinikon Olympic Complex and Aghios Kosmos Port.

Vari campus

SLC's new campus is located near to Vari in southern Athens. The school relocated here for the start of the 2004 academic year. The new campus features an Olympic sized swimming pool, a full-size artificial football pitch, 2 tennis courts, a 400-seat amphitheater, a large indoor Gym and 2 large areas for parking.
