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.
