After-school club activities

Once you have logged in to the eDaisy service, select the ‘After-school activities for schoolchildren’ tab on the home page. This will open the application form for after-school activities.   

On the application form, select an area (for example, Jokela) and, from the list of schools that appears below it, select the school where your child is due to start school or is already attending.  

In cases of joint custody (where the parents do not live at the same address), the application form may only be completed by the person named as the payer on the invoice. 

The school placements for prospective Year 1 pupils will be finalised in the headteachers’ admission decisions during week 13. 

If, for any reason, you are unable to apply for a place at the after-school club via eDaisy, you can submit the attached application form to the after-school activities coordinator.

Morning and afternoon activities provided to pupils in special classes in the municipality of Tuusula as part of special care or short-term care are organised by the welfare services and delivered by the municipalities. The activities are organised in accordance with a separate agreement with KEUSOTE. If a child does not have a decision from KEUSOTE regarding the service, families pay the same client fee for the activities as families whose children participate in after-school activities within mainstream education.

After-school care for special needs classes enables parents to participate in the labour market and offers a varied range of activities that promote social interaction. The programme is based on cooperation with parents and on care and guidance designed to maintain the child’s functional abilities. 

Organisation of activities

Morning and afternoon activities are organised at Kolsa and Rykmentinpuisto schools for pupils in classes M, K and T. These activities are available during term time from Monday to Friday, with morning care starting at 7.30 am and afternoon care running from 12 noon to 4.30 pm. In addition, full-day holiday care is organised during the autumn and winter holidays, as well as in June and August before the start of the school year. 

Applying to take part in the programme

Applications for morning and afternoon activities in special needs classes are made via eDaisy, following the same instructions as for other afternoon activity groups. During the school year, you should apply for an afternoon activity place as soon as possible once the need arises. The preliminary information form for special needs classes’ afternoon activities must be completed and returned to the school immediately after submitting the application.  

Waiving or halving the customer fee

Applications for a waiver or a 50 per cent reduction in the customer fee should primarily be submitted via eDaisy, in accordance with the instructions below. 

Completing an application via eDaisy (you will be redirected to another service)(opens in a new window, switch to another service):

• Log in using strong authentication.
• Scroll to the bottom of the page, where the ‘Applications’ tab is currently active.
• Select the ‘Income Statement’ form from the drop-down menu.
• Click the ‘Fill in the form’ button. 
• Select the child to whom the report relates → Confirm. 
• There is an additional information field at the end of the results report form. Please state there that the results report covers AP and IP activities in special classes.
  • If the reason for waiving the customer fee is a service provided by KEUSOTE, the relevant decision must be attached as an annex.
• Please note that if you are completing an income statement and there are several children in the family, a separate statement must be completed for each child.      

Applying for holiday childcare

A separate form must be completed to apply for holiday care. You can either print out the form and bring it to Rykmentinpuisto School (please write ‘Egne Rähn / special needs classes’ afternoon activities’ on the envelope) or email it to egne.rahn@tuusula.fi.

Further information on afternoon activities for special needs classes 

For Kolsa School, please contact Headteacher Anu Piira (anu.piira@tuusula.fi) on 040 314 4073

For enquiries regarding Rykmentinpuisto, please contact Deputy Headteacher Kirsi Lehto (kirsi.lehto@tuusula.fi) on 040 314 3220

By submitting the application, the family commits to a place at the after-school club. A parent or guardian may cancel the place free of charge within 14 days of receiving the decision. Cancellation must be made in writing to the after-school activities coordinator. Once the cancellation period has expired, the standard notice period applies.

During the autumn, in the event of resignation, full exemption from payments after the notice period may only be granted on the following grounds:

• moving away from the area,
• a change in family circumstances (e.g. unemployment, job-sharing leave, maternity leave) or
• where this is in the child’s best interests. If the notice of withdrawal is given on the grounds of the child’s best interests, the group leaders, the teacher and, where necessary, other relevant parties will also be consulted on the matter. In other cases, the family will be charged half the activity fee for the remainder of the autumn term following the notice period.

During the spring term, withdrawal from activities must take place within the notice period.

Dismissal procedure

The notice period is always one full calendar month. Notice of withdrawal from the after-school programme must be given in writing at least one month before the end of the final month of attendance. Notification must be made via Daisy or, if this is not possible, by contacting the coordinator. You must also always inform the club’s supervisor when you wish to leave.

The payment relief thresholds are based on the Ministry of Education and Culture’s announcement regarding index-linked early years education client fees, 1411/2015.

If a child has no days of attendance during the month, half the fee will be charged. Please notify the after-school activities coordinator separately. In the event of a prolonged illness (more than 10 consecutive days), please contact the after-school activities coordinator.   

A 20% sibling discount is applied to the monthly fee. The full fee is payable for the first child to join the club, whilst a 20% discount is applied to subsequent children.
