Presentation
The Tapanila youth center is located in the Tapanila Sports Center, with the entrance from the playground area at the end of Hiidenkiventie - see the image of the front door below.
During the 2025-2026 school year, we will also organize open activities for young people in grades 3-6 in the facilities of Tapanila Village Hall.
Sports and activities for everyone
Tapanilan nutalla käy pääasiassa lähialueen nuoria. Suurin osa tulee Hiidenkiven peruskoulusta, joka on yksi Helsingin suurimmista kouluista. Siellä on 886 oppilasta. Toinen lähikoulumme on Tapanilan ala-aste. Suuri yhteistyökumppanimme on Tapanilan urheilukeskus, jonka monenlaisia tiloja hyödynnämme nuorisotyössä.
The Tapanila youth center is mainly visited by young people from the local area. Most come from Hiidenkivi Elementary School, which is one of Helsinki’s largest schools with 886 students. Our other nearby school is Tapanila Elementary School. Our major partner is the Tapanila Sports Center, whose various facilities we utilize in our youth work.
Come join us in planning
Our basic principle is that young people themselves plan, develop and implement the youth center’s and the area’s activities with the support of instructors. The youth center’s activities are guided by shared values and goals agreed upon with youth services.
Welcome!
