Taking sixth grade pupils to forests

We are inviting 6th grade pupils to visit us and learn about forest management around our production plants. The trips are organised in co-operation with the Finnish Forest Association and the 4H organisation in Jämsä, Kouvola, Lappeenranta, Pietarsaari and Rauma.

The aim is to provide pupils with a positive forest experience and increase knowledge of how Finnish forests are used. During the excursions pupils will learn about the commercial and recreational use of forests, wildlife management and wood-based products.
