Interview of our principal Ville Vuorisalmi

How old are you? – I just turned 40.

How long have you been in Pikkola? – This is my fifth year, so about four and a half years. I started here in 2008.

What principals jobs are? – Basically I’m sort of a boss of the people who work here and then of course I have some things with the pupils. I’m the head master of the pupils and a boss for the teachers. I have to find and choose the new teachers and organize the substitutes to the teachers. When somebody has any problems I should try to solve them and try to help them. And the same goes with the pupils, if there is something complicated, I should try to manage or solve the problems.

What other languages do you speak? – I studied German in school, and I have been worked in Germany for one summer, so I sort of know how to speak German, I don’t know anymore how to write it, so I just speak it. Same goes with French, I have studied it in France for a half year, when I was about 25 years old. I have to study Swedish as well, so I can survive with that too.

What is the best thing in Pikkola? – The people are nice. That’s the best thing here.

What is the best place in Pikkola? – I think it’s the canteen. It’s the best time of the day, eating lunch.

Where do you live? – I live in Peltolammi, Tampere

What kind of family do you have? – I have two daughters, they are now 8 and 6 years old, and my wife as well.

Do you have any hobbies? – I like to be outside. I used to be a scout and camp a lot. I do it with my old friends, about every year. Hikes and things like that. I like reading, but most of the time I’m a dad for two children.
