This school was on a small island just west of the city. We took a city bus and then walked in the park to get there. Lauttasaaren Yhteiskoulu is a school building that includes the upper grades of the compulsory school in Finland. So the classes we saw today had students aged 13-15. We saw the students cleaning the kitchen areas for the end of the semester and heard some students practicing a farewell song, which was appropriate for our group today.
One of the foreign language teachers, Heikki, gave a brief presentation on the school and answered our questions very well. Heikki was pleased with the La Roche pennant and picture frame that Azlan presented to him as a small thank you, or as they say in Finland, "Kiitos!"
