Ms Mastoris adorned her home and prepared flower ornaments, wreaths and baskets for everyone at the festival that was held.

The wreaths were made from various flowers, handpicked and knitted together, from her garden.

She welcomed everyone to the event and thanked them for supporting the event for over 20 years.

There was plenty of dancing, family fun, Greek flavours and a competition for the best dancer.
