Vähikkälä school

Vähikkälä school will be closed as of August 1, 2026 by decision of the Municipal Council (April 27, 2026, Section 27).

The school is located about eight kilometers southwest of the Tervakoski urban area.

Vähikkälä School is one of the oldest schools in Finland operating in the same building. Vähikkälä’s children enjoyed education for the first time in 1879 at the Toiva manor premises. The current school building was put into use in 1882. The current school is located in a yellow log building in the center of a vibrant village community.

We feel very comfortable in the Vähikkälä village.

In the 2025-2026 school year, the school has 2 teachers and 26 students.

Grades 1-2: Class teacher Meri-Marja Nurmilaakso.
Grades 3-6: Class teacher Janne Heikkonen.
