Finland International Education

✨ A joyful learning evening for parents and children ✨

This evening offers Indian families a practical and joyful way to experience child-centred education in action.

Children will take part in a live learning session, while parents can see how curiosity, confidence, wellbeing and joy can support children’s learning and growth.

The session will be followed by a short parent information moment.

Meaningful learning begins in early childhood. 🌱

It was wonderful to see the importance of early childhood education highlighted internationally in Lima, Peru.

We were also proud to see Dr. Johan Storgård from FINE contributing to the discussion through his presentation.

The foundations of well-being, curiosity, trust, and lifelong learning are built during the earliest years.

Our May newsletter has been published ✨

This month, we share reflections on meaningful learning, trust-based education, leadership, and international collaboration.

Thank you for being part of our journey.

We are excited to share an important milestone in FINE’s international journey.

FINE has signed a long-term collaboration agreement with Woodworth International Nature Science School, a new Finnish-inspired school initiative in Thailand.

The new school will combine Finnish early childhood education and primary education principles with a nature-oriented and internationally minded learning environment.

The cooperation includes: Finnish-inspired ECEC and primary education curriculum support, teacher training and pedagogical mentoring, leadership and operational development, phenomenon-based and play-based learning approaches, and a strong focus on well-being, community, and child-centered learning.

The school will begin operations in Chonburi, Thailand, and represents another meaningful step in carrying Finnish educational thinking into new cultural contexts through partnership, dialogue, and trust.

At FINE, we believe education cannot simply be copied from one country to another. It must be thoughtfully adapted together with local communities, educators, and families.

We look forward to sharing more updates as the project progresses.
