Handmade Christmas cards and chocolates to our senior neighbors at Metsolan Hovi!

We surprised the seniors and the nurses at the Metsolan Hovi nursing home with handmade Christmas cards (paintings by our student Minja Saarenpää) and chocolates.

Due to the pandemic, our traditional Christmas carols singing event at Metsolan Hovi is postponed till spring. However, we will send them a video greeting with several music performances before the Christmas holidays!

In the picture, nurse Maija Keränen receiving the Christmas cards and the chocolates from our high school students Aukusti Hackzell and Adalmiina Irvankoski.

Thank you all "Unesco - Green Flag - Erasmus" students who made the Christmas surprise possible!
