We are monitoring the development of the coronavirus situation. Despite the restrictions, the situation has not yet improved significantly. Taking into consideration the current situation and the recommendations of Helsinki Metropolitan Area Corona Coordination Group, we will continue distance learning until 23 April. Restaurant Perho’s customer dining facilities will remain closed until 18 April 2021. Restaurant Perho’s take away sales and Perho food truck will continue to operate normally. Helmi Center will remain closed for the time being. However, professional athletes and the youngsters born in 2008 or later may still use the facilities.

The Covid-19 pandemic in the Helsinki metropolitan area is still in the active spreading phase despite the restrictions and closures. Fortunately, in the past few days, the infection rates have begun to decline. The Helsinki Metropolitan Area Corona Coordination Group has outlined on 30 March that distance learning in secondary education will continue after Easter.

Perho Culinary, Tourism and Business College will continue distance learning until the end of the current period, i.e. until 23 April 2021.

We will continue to implement solutions for unavoidable teaching situations and contact instruction for students with special needs with careful consideration and adherence to safety instructions. We are doing everything within our power to support and help graduating students so that they can graduate within the target schedule.
