Business description
Emmaskolan i Mettä Dokkas is a growing primary school in the countryside of Gällivare municipality. It includes preschool class, after-school care and grades 1-6. The school has about 50 pupils from Dokkas, Mettä Dokkas, Leipojärvi and surrounding villages, with a steady influx. Adjacent to the school is the newly built Emma preschool with two departments. The school has close access to large natural areas that are used in all the pupils' activities.
Emmaskolan is a small school where we develop close relationships and dare to succeed and fail together. Our vision is "For a future where everything is possible!". We are constantly developing our teaching and learning environments to give students the best possible conditions for learning.
Hakka's school in the same principal's area has been granted an ERASMUS+ accreditation for 2021-2027. This means continuous cooperation projects with other schools around Europe with the possibility of travel within the service for all participating educators, from both Hakka's school and Emma's school. The goals of the ERASMUS+ work are to collaborate with other schools in Europe that have similar challenges as we have, to strengthen students' motivation to read several languages, further develop distance learning and give students and teachers the opportunity to look at their own hometown from new perspectives.
