On this page you can find both Finnish-language and Swedish-language municipal daycare centres that offer pre-primary education in 2024–2025 as well as their partner schools.
Helsinki is divided into pre-primary education admission areas that are either identical or slightly larger than the school admission areas of basic education. More than one comprehensive school may be in a pre-primary education admission area. Each daycare centre or school providing pre-primary has one or more partner schools with which pre-primary education groups collaborate during the pre-primary year.
You can check your admission area and pre-primary education locations according to the child’s home address on the service map (Link leads to external service)(Link leads to external service) . The admission areas are updated on the service map each school year.
