School Center in Karaniitty

• Residents’ event 19/5/2026 at 17-19: We will organise a residents’ event for everyone interested in the plan. The event will be held in Finnish. You can ask questions and give comments in English. More information is available in the event announcement.

The population of Kera and Kilo is growing, and the city is preparing to offer more school and day-care centre places. The Karamalmens skola school and day-care centre block located on Karaniityntie will be expanded so that a new primary school can be built there. 

The Swedish-speaking school and day-care centre will remain in operation. In addition, the possibility of constructing a new building for the Swedish-speaking day-care centre will be investigated. 

The southern part of the planning area, an unbuilt construction site, will be converted into a park. The plans also include a neighbourhood sports park for both pupils and residents of the area. Attention will be paid to the planning of safe school routes and high-quality outdoor recreation routes. Parking and pick-up and drop-off traffic will be made functional and safe. 

You can find current information about the progress of a plan on the plan webpage in Finnish. For more information, you can contact the planners. You can participate in the planning process by submitting an opinion during the preparation stage or an objection during the proposal stage.
