Meals for senior citizens to be expanded to Hyrylä Upper Secondary School starting in September
Meal services for senior citizens will be expanded in Tuusula starting on 1 September 2025 to include five schools, when meal services will also begin at Hyrylä Upper Secondary School.
The municipality of Tuusula organises communal lunches for elderly people at schools after the school meals. The meals are served during school hours and only if there is food left over at the school. In autumn 2025, meals will be served at four different schools. From 1 September 2025, the programme will be expanded to five schools when meals for senior citizens also begin at Hyrylä Upper Secondary School.
Pensioners residing in Tuusula are eligible for meals for the elderly. A pensioner card must be presented upon request. Meals are paid for separately with a meal voucher, which costs €1.65 per meal. It is possible to purchase leftover food at a price of €1.75/500 g with a separate EkoTeko 500 g voucher.
In autumn 2025, meals will be provided at the following schools:
- Kellokoski School, 12:40–1:00 p.m.
- Jokela Secondary School, 12:35–13:00
- Riihikallio School, 12:15–12:35 p.m. (Please note that meals will now be served in the new school building’s cafeteria. Access to the cafeteria is via the main entrance on the courtyard side.)
