In a concerning incident at the 1st Elementary School of Palaio Faliro, a portion of the ceiling collapsed in the restrooms while classes were in session. Fortunately, there were no injuries reported, but the event caused panic among the students present at the time, including a 3rd-grade student named by the mother, Anna Kokkori, who raised the alarm about the situation.

Anna Kokkori, a member of the school's Parent Association, publicly criticized the local authorities for their lack of action regarding the safety of school facilities. She expressed her frustration over the ongoing negligence of the municipality in addressing maintenance and necessary repairs. Kokkori stated that despite numerous messages sent to the municipality requesting urgent attention to the school’s infrastructure, the responses have been vague promises with no concrete action.

This incident raises significant concerns about the safety of school buildings in the area. The collapse not only highlights potential negligence on the part of local officials but may also prompt increased scrutiny and demand for immediate repairs across public school facilities to prevent similar occurrences in the future. Parents and community members are likely to push for accountability from the authorities to ensure the safety and wellbeing of their children in educational settings.
