International cooperation
At Klassikka we value our international connections greatly. We are active in taking part in different projects both near and far. Each year we also have exchange students and teachers from around the world studying and teaching in our school. We strongly feel this broadens the horizons of all involved.
We’d be delighted to hear from you if you are interested in collaborating with us.
