The pre-school application period, known in Ankkalampi as the Mestari-Ankka application for the upcoming 2025-2026 season begins in January 2025!

The year before going to school is important for your child. In Ankkalampi, pre-school education is concluded in a school-like manner during the Mestari-Ankka lessons. These moments include practising academic skills as well as learning through play, exercise and trips. Mestari-Ankka activities are planned full-day pedagogical activity both inside and outdoors. The goal of the pre-school year is to prepare the child for school and strengthen their social skills. In Mestari-Ankat the child’s independent activity and development of a positive self-image is supported. We want to create a safe and reliable basis for the school path and we also cooperate with nearby schools. The Mestari-Ankka activity is based on the city’s pre-school curriculum and the basics of the national early childhood education plan.

Ankkalampi’s Mestari-Ankka program offers something special:

  • The speciality of the pre-school activity is small child groups, where the specific developmental needs of every child is answered.
  • The purpose of the pre-school education is to support children moving from kindergarten to school by strengthening the child’s independent activity and development of a positive self-image.
  • Functional bilingualism enables the child to learn a foreign language even before starting school.

After the Mestari-Ankka year, the child going to school is confident in themself and their own skills!
