On Friday 26th August 2022, a group of educators who were conducting a study visit in Tampere, met with the vice mayor of Tampere, Mr Pekka Salmi and Ms Satu Vuorinen, the Head of the International Affairs within the Tampere Municipality, at the City Town Hall. The courtesy visit was organised by Dr Kenneth Vella, the Head of School. It was an opportunity for the educators to discuss their fruitful study visit held in Tampere and opportunities to enhance the strong links between Malta and Finland with regards to the education sector. At the end of the meeting, Dr Vella presented the vice mayor with a copy of the book, Finnish Education in Practice which was written by Finnish educators and published in Malta by Kite Group. Ms Ruth Mansueto, Assistant Head, presented Mr Salmi with one of her works, a painting of a scene of the Maltese landscape.
