In Tuusula, the new school year begins on Thursday 13 August 2026 at primary and secondary schools. The Tuusula School of Visual Arts and the Adult Education Centre will also start their term during August.

Practising the route in advance and agreeing on how to use a mobile phone help children and young people starting their journey to school to get there safely.

The Youth Services’ family days – which evoke a sense of nostalgia and bring generations together – are returning on 20–22 July to Jokela, Kellokoski and Riihikallio.

This autumn will offer both familiar and new opportunities for extracurricular activities to complement the school day. You can also find out more about the range of activities on offer at Tuusula’s third extracurricular activities fair on 25 August at Riihikallio School.

The Tuusula-wide Leisure Fair will be held at Riihikallio School on 25 August 2026 from 5.30 pm to 7.30 pm. Sign up to be a exhibitor by 9 August 2026!

The use of the outdoor areas will have to be restricted, as early years education in South Tuusula is concentrated at the Tuusulanjärvi nursery during the summer and the building’s outdoor area is required for these activities.

Over the spring, Tuusula has taken many significant steps towards becoming an even more child-friendly municipality. The voices of children and young people have been heard more clearly, particularly in discussions about leisure and recreational opportunities and in participatory budgeting.

The new members of the Tuusula Leisure Group, who launched their activities earlier this year, have thrown themselves enthusiastically into their work. Their first task this spring has been to compile a list of schools’ requests for leisure activities and clubs, and in the autumn they will be promoting the new leisure season.

The voting period for Tuusula’s participatory budgeting for children and young people has now closed, and the proposals that received the most votes will be implemented over the next eighteen months. Thank you to everyone who voted!
