They also host special target groups such as students with special needs as well as young asylum seekers.

The school surroundings need maintaining so the volunteers will work with seasonal tasks indoors and outdoors such as painting and berrypicking. The volunteers can enjoy local food and peaceful nature and lifestyle as well. Please note that this is not a traditional work camp and the tasks vary by the season.

Punkaharju is located in eastern Finland near Savonlinna and it takes four hours by train from Helsinki. The school is situated in a location of natural beauty, surrounded on both sides by lakes and magnificent scenery. The area offers opportunities for outdoor activities. The volunteers can join Finnish language and culture presentation.
