Maetaguse Basic School continues studies as usual, only from distance with the help of digital devices. Our work is based on the usual lesson plan and so far everything has gone well because we have experience from previous digital learning days. Both students and teachers take their job responsibilities very seriously.
WE can manage!

The Ministry of Education and Research recommends schools and other educational institutions to follow information by the Health Board of Estonia in regarding to the corona virus outbreak. At the moment, the situation does not need extraordinary measures in schools, but the Ministry recommends to pay more attention to the prevention of diseases.
On the 22nd - 23rd of February there was a hiking camp meant for home daughters in which our girls also participated. The home daughters hiked from Kohtla-Nõmme to a place of an ancient Alulinna stronghold in Aa village. Alulinn used to be a fortress in a swamp or wetland on the parish border of Askäla and Alutaguse. It is believed that the name Alutaguse originates from the name of Alulinna. The purpose of the hike was to challenge oneself and to pay attention to nature.
