The 87th Birthday celebration of Adv. George Bizos styled ‘in conversation with Former First Lady Graça Machel’ was held on Saturday 15 November, at the school’s George Bizos Hall. SAHETI Alumni expressed their support by attending in great numbers. This fundraising event was aimed at raising funds for The George Bizos Saheti Scholarship and Bursary Fund which helps pay for the education of deserving children who would otherwise not be able to attend SAHETI.

George Bizos, Graca Machel and Sam Ramsamy captivated and inspired the audience with their conversations of national importance. The colloquium was moderated by Elizabeth Sidiropoulos (Alumna, 1985) and The Master of Ceremonies was the very talented, Aki Anastasiou (Alumnus, 1986). SAHETI’s High School and Primary School pupils presented a superb selection of musical items which showcased our school among esteemed guests. SAHETI Alumni John and Melissa Generalis (1985, 1990) planned and coordinated the event with class and sophistication.

“If everyone is educated and skilled, they can regain their dignity and be able to make a decent living.” - Former First Lady Graça Machel

Collector’s items, an autographed copy of the 21 icons coffee table book and a portrait of Advocate George Bizos were auctioned on the night. The funds generated will go towards The George Bizos Saheti Scholarship and Bursary Fund.

“The likes of the late Madiba ended up being philosophers because of education.” - Advocate George Bizos
