We have an all-day student reception on Sunday 23th August, and a joint meeting in the evening when most students have arrived. Send an email to the school and let us know when to expect you. Those arriving by plane and train are picked up on request. See more info in the link with information that you receive by email. After holidays, a pick-up is set up for students on the last day off.

Vacations

During holidays, the school is closed and you must leave the school grounds. You can return home after the end of classes at 14.00 the day before the start of the holiday/first day of the holiday unless otherwise stated. You must leave school during the first day of vacation. It is not possible to stay overnight at the boarding houses after the holiday has started. It is therefore wise to arrange tickets well in advance. You can return from vacation the day before classes start. As a rule, the first meal is supper on this day.

For students from countries with long travel distances, other agreements can be made on request.

The folk high school year is busy and full of impressions, and during the holidays it can be nice to go home and be well cared for by parents and friends.

Below you can see what the schedule looks like in regular weeks. There might be some adjustments for the next school year, but the hourly ratio will be the same. Most electives take place in the afternoon/evening. Some course activity also involves working in the evening. We plan details for the year in periods, which will entail some changes to the plan throughout the year.
