Its been only 9 months since 12-year-old Asad arrived in Greece from Idlib, Syria, but already he speaks impressively good Greek. I want to be a doctor and a footballer, he says. Sitting right next to him, his 11-year-old sister, Amal, also dreams of becoming a doctor, although shes very much afraid of the needles. The two children are staying at the Accommodation Centre of Thermopylae together with their parents and three siblings and can hardly wait to go to school. I want to learn Greek, English and maths. Ill share the classroom with my friends Mohammed, Samer and Madgid, says Asad. Me, too! I will be sitting with Saima, Amal adds. Their mother shares with us the joy of seeing the children back to school again.
