Campus

Main Building

Completed in the year 1895, the College`s most beautiful building had an additional sports wing built in 1965. In accordance with `the spirit of the time` in 1961 the main building was covered with plaster boards, at that time judged to be an everlasting material. The judgment was misguided as the plaster boards were taken away in the year 1991 and the building was returned to its original form. In the opinion of the majority this was a move for the better!

The building was totally renovated in 2006 - 2008.

Two classrooms and a fireproof archive are located on the basement level. On the ground floor next to the office there is a beautiful conference hall decorated with gypsum columns and crystal chandeliers. The library is located on the same floor and includes more than 3000 items in Finnish, English, Spanish, French and Russian languages. Next to the library, you can also find the sports hall that offers facilities for a variety of the most common indoor sport activities.

On the upper floor, there are three classrooms, a language laboratory, a computer classroom as well as the principal's and teachers` apartments.

Canteen

The building of the canteen was finished 1926, so it is the second oldest building after the Main Building. An additional wing was attached in 1960. There are a kitchen, a bakery and a large dining room on the ground floor. The first floor has two classrooms and a small apartment. In the year 2000 some rooms of the building were completely renovated.

Dormitory: Loima

The dormitory was built in 1989. The building has two floors and an additional ground floor wing. The apartments of the dormitory are almost of a hotel quality. The additional wing houses a teacher's apartment. The building is made of concrete and sided with red brick.

Dormitory: Paideia

The word is Greek for "upbringing" and that is where the term pedagogic comes from. The two-storied building was finished in 1998. The rooms are new and can be compared to hotel rooms. There is a classroom in the cellar that is used as the drama studio. The building is made of concrete and covered with yellow plaster.

Dormitory: Toivola

Toivola was built in the year 1935. Originally the building was comprised of classrooms that were later changed into student residence. The building is made of logs and covered with painted plaster boards. Toivola is perfect from the viewpoint of neighbourly spirit and there is plenty of space for arranging improvised evening events.

Dormitory: Päivänpaiste

Another dormitory Päivänpaiste is connected to Toivola. Originally the building was used as a storage and sauna. Päivänpaiste was painted in spring 2008. It has modern showers and WC:s located in the main corridor and the rooms have been fully renovated during the Autumn 2008.

Pets are not allowed in the dormitories!

Sauna

The College has its own sauna on the shore of the river Loimijoki. The building was finished in 1964 and includes saunas for students and personnel. Next to the sauna there is a cozy chimney hall that offers opportunities for celebrations and pleasant evenings. The sauna and showers were renovated in 2006.

Other buildings

There are also several storage spaces, a bicycle garage and a workshop on the campus.

The yard, beach and surroundings

The campus itself is really picturesque and peaceful. An abundance of trees, bushes and flowers of different types create an attractive and charming whole. The campus stretches from the road of Loimijoentie up to the river Loimijoki where swimming opportunities are available. Football and volleyball grounds are freely available for use by students as are the mini-golf and outdoor barbeque grill.
