We provide basic education for Grades 1-6. There are altogether 370 pupils in our school. Our core mission is to support the children's learning in various ways so that they achieve good basic knowledge and skills. Our special emphasis is on art education and children's culture, including music, sports and all kinds of self-expression. Besides our annual theatre projects, the pupils are offered a wide range of siesta clubs (theatre, band, choir, etc.) and elective subjects to choose from. Our school also actively participates in the "Schools on the Move" national action programme. Our pupils begin their foreign language studies (A1 language) on Grade 1, English.
