In the 2025/2026 academic year, the City of Tallinn will open classes in five schools transitioning to Estonian-language instruction, specifically for children who speak Estonian at a native level.

Parents will decide whether to enroll their children in these classes.

The school holiday from December 23 to January 5 offers exciting workshops ranging from crafting to cultural programs and winter camps.
