The Veterinary School of the University of Thessaly will be housed in the old Primary School of Athienou. The news was confirmed by Mayor Kyriakos Kareklas, who published a letter thanking the Council of Ministers for approving the lease of the building. The establishment of the school in Athienou is expected to contribute to the development of the area, creating a long-term and mutually beneficial collaboration between the university and the local community. The mayor stressed that the presence of the school will enhance the prestige and presence of the university in the wider region. The decision to establish the Veterinary School was made on April 11th, and the historic building of the Primary School was deemed the most suitable location. This move represents a strategic choice for the university's expansion outside of Greece. In addition to the Veterinary School, the University of Thessaly plans to operate at least two more schools in the remote Municipality of Cyprus, further enhancing the academic and economic development of the area. The start of operations is expected to boost the local community and create new opportunities.
