Customer fees are 130 €/month when operating time ends at 16:00 and 150 €/month when operating time ends at 17:00.

Can my child leave earlier from the activity, even though the operating time ends, e.g. at 16:00?
Yes of course, the child can stay on the afterschool activity as long as necessary for the family. Your child can also take days off from the afterschool activity if you wish.

Can I change the operating time mid-school year?
Yes, with one month's notice you can change the operating time, for example, 17:00 to 16:00. In example if you notify Sallamari Mäkinen on October 1st, that you wish to change the operating time, your contract changes November 1st to your new operating time. Changes cannot be made retrospectively.
