Morning and afternoon activities

Morning and afternoon activities provide stimulating and safe programs for children before and after the school day.

The objectives of the morning and afternoon activities are to

  • support the educational efforts of both home and school
  • promote the child’s emotional development and ethical growth
  • enhance the well-being of children and promote equality among them
  • prevent social exclusion and strengthen participation
  • provide children with diverse opportunities to take part in guided and recreational activities
  • ensure rest in a calm environment under the supervision of a qualified and suitable professional.

According to the Basic Education Act, morning and afternoon activities are intended for students in grades 1 and 2, as well as for students from other grades who have been placed in or transferred to special education.

In Siikalatva, activities are organized in the mornings from 7:00 AM until the start of school, and in the afternoons from the end of the school day until 4:30 PM.
The activity fee is 100€ per month.
If a child participates in the activities 10 days or fewer per month, the fee is 5€ per day.
