Learning through play, the Finnish way

Sep 22, 2025 | AIS News

On September 22nd, Altamira International School had the honor of hosting Heikki Vartia, representative of HEI Schools, a renowned Finnish education provider. During his visit, we engaged in a valuable dialogue about the importance of learning through play and how this philosophy, inspired by the Finnish approach, fosters holistic student development.

At Altamira, we believe that learning through play not only enhances creativity but also nurtures curiosity, collaboration, and critical thinking. This vision is reflected both in our school and in Nido, our early childhood center, where we strive to ensure that every learning experience is meaningful, innovative, and child-centered.

The visit from HEI Schools reinforces our commitment to implementing educational practices that promote innovation and student well-being from the very first years of learning.
