Communities @ ISH

WELCOME TO THE HEART OF OUR VIBRANT ISH COMMUNITY, THE ISH PARENT-TEACHER ORGANIZATION!🌟

The PTO fosters connections and creates memorable experiences for families, teachers, and staff.

Here’s what makes us your inclusive community hub:

🤝 New Family Support: New to Finland? Let us extend a warm welcome with our welcome coffee mornings and informative talks about living in Finland. Our handbook for new families and the welcome coordinator are here to assist in settling in. We also provide additional language support through community coordinators. While we may not have a community coordinator for every language, we strive to cover widely spoken languages. Our language support coordinators can assist you in navigating your time at ISH. For assistance in getting connected, please contact our Welcome Coordinators at pto.welcome@ishelsinki.fi.

🍸 ISHNO – International School of Helsinki Night Out: Join us for evenings of camaraderie as we explore Helsinki’s culinary scene, engage in friendly competition at quiz nights, or enjoy a round of bowling with friends.

🎓 Workshops: Dive into diverse workshops where you can enhance your skills and knowledge, covering topics ranging from cultural insights to practical skills.

💪 Fitness & More: Stay active and connected through our Yoga, Bootcamp, and Running Clubs. Plus, join our Global Foods Club for culinary adventures worldwide!
