Rautalampi High School
Overview
You can combine riding and high school studies. Riding is free of charge (19 riding and horsemanship theory courses). The school is well-known for its theatrical production. We have a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The most of our students come to our school from outside Rautalampi, all parts of Finland. So we know well, how to support a young person moving first time into their own home.
It depends on the season. Winter is snowy, dark, and cold (-20C to 0C), but summer is warm and there's 24/7 daylight for over two months in June and July (+15 - +25C).
