To the guardian of a pupil at Tuusulanjärvi School

You can find instructions on how to enrol your child in the first grade under Enrolling in school.

If you are moving to the vicinity of Tuusulanjärvi School, please contact the school principal.

At Tuusulanjärvi School, we offer teaching that takes into account the individuality of each pupil, with an emphasis on the following areas:

• student participation as a promoter of school satisfaction and well-being
• literacy as the foundation of education
• leisure as a source of creativity
• joyful collaboration
• inte ationalism and multiculturalism as a source of richness
• consideration for the environment and sustainable development.

Tuusulanjärvi School has an active student council, led by Emmi Kyllönen and Heidi Vuoskulompolo.

In addition, our school has student teams, known as Influencers, whose purpose is to increase student participation and provide opportunities to influence school activities. This year, our school has three student teams:

• Library team
• The quick thinker and the buddy team
• KeKe (sustainable development) team.

Guardians can create Wilma accounts for themselves when registering their child for the first grade. The other parent can request a key code from the school secretary to create an account.

If a pupil changes schools during their comprehensive school education, you will automatically receive the necessary key code from the school secretary when you enrol at the school.

For all questions related to Wilma IDs, please contact school secretary Annina Utriainen: etunimi.sukunimi@tuusula.fi, 040 314 2210. 

The Tuusulanjärvi School Parents’ Association KoKoTuKi ry works to promote cooperation between Tuusulanjärvi School, its pupils and parents, and to foster a good environment for children to grow up in. 

The association organises sales and other events at the school and raises funds for purchases that benefit the pupils of Tuusulanjärvi School. The association organises three high-quality, free after-school clubs for pupils. The association offers cultural experiences for the school community during the autumn and spring terms and organises events that engage the whole family, such as sales, Pihameiningit and Suuren askarteluillan. KoKoTuKi funds the Hymyveistokset smiles and scholarships awarded in the spring, as well as providing grants for school camp funds.
